What about the other options in Camden?
The Lib Dems - they opposed this budget, shameful.
The Green Party - they abstained, without even bothering to speak!
Only Camden Labour is delivering for residents - proper investment, outstanding services.
Over the last few years, Camden has built 1700 genuinely affordable homes, with more on the way, and we're spending £28 million on supporting the homeless and preventing homelessness with two new shelters being built and a scheme to buy back properties to use for temporary accommodation
We're also investing in our council homes, with a £670 million renewal programme, and a £29.9 million fund to retrofit homes - helping residents cut bills and reduce emissions.
Camden's budget meeting was last night - Some highlights - @camdenlabour.bsky.social keeps bringing down the cost of living; protecting Camden's Council Tax Support Scheme (one of the best in the country!), re-investing in the cost of living support fund and continuing our innovative pregnancy grant
Graphic with the headline “London is the greatest city in the world” set against a bright view of the River Thames with the Shard, Tower Bridge and the city skyline. The text celebrates what makes London special: regularly voted the number one city in the world, incredible diversity with over 300 languages spoken, world-class transport, world leader in finance tech and life sciences, best museums and galleries many free to visit, world-leading nightlife, food sport and music for every taste, host to the world’s best sporting events, home to seven Premier League clubs, globally-ranked universities, a city where you can be yourself and love who you love, and a place for everyone.
I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again.
Ignore the haters, London is the 🐐
The obvious answer...
Deputy Leader of Camden Tories Shiva Tiwari’s abusive behaviour towards shop staff — in a business in his own ward — is appalling & wholly unacceptable.
This falls far below the standards expected of any Camden Cllr.
Shiva must resign & the whip must immediately be removed.

In Camden, we believe we will be a fairer, more creative and innovative place to work, visit and live in if we can harness different perspectives and experience.
That’s why we are fully committed to promoting equality, diversity and inclusion.

I share the deep disappointment in today's Supreme Court ruling, and the concerns about what this will mean for trans women going forward.
Today and every day, I stand in unwavering solidarity with the trans community.
We must never stop fighting for trans rights.
"we won't let you sell out our NHS" screams former government minister who supported selling NHS services to the highest bidder (mostly from the US) when it meant he could have a go in the ministerial car...
Ed Davey acts like a clown in the hope that we all forget what the Lib Dems did.
7. 320 cycle hangars and miles of new cycle infrastructure to make Camden a safer place to cycle around.
I could go on, on and on. Camden Labour got 56% of the vote in 2022, we have delivered on our promise to make a Camden a safer, cleaner, fairer place.
All the Camden Tories do is yap!!!
5. The first adult social care service in the country to be rated outstanding, underpinned by an 'invest to save' strategy that shielded vulnerable residents from the past 14 years of Tory austerity
6. Thousands of people helped into local jobs by Good Work Camden
3. An innovative community wealth fund that helps young entrepreneurs from all backgrounds tap into capital that can kickstart local business and social enterprise.
4. Additional investment in street cleaning services, especially around high footfall streets
1. One of the broadest Council Tax Support Schemes in London, supporting thousands of families through the cost of living crisis.
2. One of the biggest Council house building programmes in the country, delivering hundreds of award-winning homes over the past decade
hahaha what a clown!! 🤡🤡🤡
If he had any sense of decency he would call a by-election, let the people of West Hampstead decide if they want a charlatan Tory as a councillor.
Anyway, here are some examples of Camden's 'leftist political agenda' 🧵

EDGAR THE BUG WEARING HUMAN SKIN FROM MEN IN BLACK: SUGAR WATER
GAVIN NEWSOM: Yes, sugar water. And my party hasn't acknowledged how much people love sugar and water. My son was shouting SUGAR WATER at me the other day on xbox.
Ethnic minority households are at the sharp end of Britain's housing crisis.
@camronaref.bsky.social & @feliciao.bsky.social find that ethnic minorities spend more on housing than White British households - but get less in return.

@camdenlabour.bsky.social are doing everything we can to support the campaign to keep Ye Olde Swiss Cottage as a genuine, community pub 🍻
Important community assets like this need long term, responsive custodians, grounded in the local community, to thrive.

This is an obscene reflection of the damage caused by the moral panic, widespread belief that we have no right to access healthcare, so if we do we're perceived to have manipulated for personal gain.
If this was any other healthcare area it would be a monumental, widely recognised scandal.
