Haringey Council rated as one of the worst in the country
Commenting on Audit Commission’s finding that significant concerns remain for Safeguarding Children in the borough and giving Haringey Council a 1 out of 4 ‘Poor’ rating, Cllr Robert Gorrie, Leader of Haringey Liberal Democrat opposition group, said:
“It is unforgivable that Haringey Council is still failing the most vulnerable people in our borough; from children at risk to those in desperate housing need.
“The staff seem to be trying their best, but Labour are failing to provide the leadership so sorely needed. Labour have clearly become part of problem and not the solution.
“Local residents desperately need a fresh start that can only come with a party that hasn’t been in charge for last 40 years.”
Lynne Featherstone, MP for Hornsey and Wood Green, adds:
“This is crushing blow for the Labour Government and Labour administration. Despite their best efforts Haringey Council is still being rated as one of the worst performing councils in the country. Only wholesale change can turn this around and next year’s Council elections offer the only chance for real change.”
