Lynne's Parliament and Haringey Diary, established 2003

Friday surgery

Long, long surgery at Hornsey Library. Always fascinating – always draining. Tales of misery of families torn apart by Home Office decisions that would break your heart; housing problems with four in a room; benefits cock-ups that end with eviction because Haringey loses applications – even though client has proof of posting; a young woman with a disabled child comes to tell me of the dreadful lack of support given to those with disabilities and the rude and unhelpful treatment they get; a young man with autism receives cuts and bruises while in respite care – and his family cannot get any appropriate explanations of why. So many battles to fight!

    Cast your mind back 4 years Ms.Featherstone, isn’t this what you came into politics to fix?
    Well, now you can expect your workload to be increased 10 fold, given the misery, pain and suffering your Government now intend to inflict on the nation.
