Promises, Promises: The 2014 election leaflet issued by Lambeth Labour…   (with NO mention of estate demolitions)

~

Keep rent rises for council homes as low as possible We reduced service charges this year and kept heating and water bills down.

~

Help reduce your fuel bills We will help people switch to cheaper energy providers by promoting the “Big London Energy Switch”. And nationally a Labour Government would freeze your gas and electricity bills until 2017.

~

Increase recycling rates and maintain a weekly bin collection Lambeth Labour will make it easier for everyone to recycle as much waste as possible and offer community composting and food growing projects on all of our estates.
~
Building the homes we need London is facing a housing crisis. Lambeth Labour believes everyone deserves to live in a decent home. Locally we will build new, genuinely affordable homes and put local people at the front of the queue. House prices and rents are rising fast, making it harder for ordinary people to live in London. Ending the housing crisis means making big decisions – to tackle unaffordable rents, giving tenants the security they deserve, and building the thousands of extra homes that Lambeth desperately needs. We will: Build 1,000 new council homes We’ve already started work to build the first new council homes in decades – we will build 1,000 over the next five years.
~
Push for a fairer deal for private renters Lambeth Labour will improve security for private renters by pushing for longer leases and cracking down on the rip-off agencies and rogue landlords that are forcing rents and charges up.
