This is Oxbow Island, on the River Lea, opposite the bottom of Southwold Road and Lathams estate E5 - a wonderful overgrown wild area of land and haven for river birds, still just about surviving. With the new plans for a double size ice rink, it is likely to disappear as such.

West entrance of the village of Haggerstone, near Shoreditch, as it appeared in 1794.

London councils are getting paid by developers and landowners in exchange for allowing them to write local planning documents. theguardian.com/politics/202…

Rishi Sunak - utter failure
Replying to @PeteApps
Missing: - Additional cash for social homes building/acquisition. - Boost to local housing allowance/Universal Credit I don't know how you're planning on dealing with homelessness and unemployment without these, but there we go
Turns out it’s a Argyranthemum

No Tv signal this morning. Anyone else in Hoxton experiencing the same?

And it took THREE attempts to turn into Nuttall Street
This is what is happening on Nuttall Street. Vehicles of this size and length are dangerous. @steve_race @VincentStops @jonburkeUK

@CarolineSelman @steve_race Take note.
The A10 is shut between Osman Road and Laburnham Street whilst we investigate and incident. Please avoid the area and take other routes if possible. Thank you for your cooperation. @TfLTrafficNews
Pity the Council trashed these then...
We need trees more than trees need us.

How long do lical residents have to put up with this anti-social behaviour before the #Hackney council and police actually do something to stop this? @PhilipGlanville hackneygazette.co.uk/news/cr…

Would love to do this, but at £25 per person, the price excludes most ordinary people.

Flats for outright sale ARE unaffordable for ordinary working class people, that is undeniable.

They're not 'lux flats', they're flats for sale to build a new school, new leisure centre, & new council housing. We don't receive Gov't support for these things, so we have to find a way. Canopy cover will be replaced in time, but the unavoidable loss of trees is a wrench.

Tree canopy will only be replaced if new trees are not isolated specimens, however many there are. For habitat to be restored they need to be grouped together & surrounded by earth etc.

Don’t doubt your sincerity John, but the new trees will not replace the 3000 m2 tree canopy & the habitat destroyed. And no mention of the 400 lux unaffordable flats that are intrinsic to this development.
We're building a new school on that site for working class kids in Hoxton and Shoreditch, building a state of the art leisure. and we're replacing every tree (and more). The idea we remove trees for fun is a nonsense, and nobody is doing more on decarbonisation than Hackney...
