Absolutely agree!
An inspirational and authentic speech laying out a vision for a fairer society

I have been listening to Andy Burnham's Conference speech. A speech built around one argument: Britain needs to take back control of the things everyone depends on.

He has given us all a lot to think about!

Andy Burnham called out deindustrialisation, deregulation, privatisation, austerity and Brexit as causes of Britain’s decline. Then he laid out a plan to put more of the essentials under public control.

Housing: Build council homes at a scale not seen since the post-war era and reform Right to Buy for new homes.
Water: Repeal the ban on public ownership of water companies and give mayors stronger powers to hold them accountable.
Energy: Create a publicly owned Great British Grid to speed up connections and drive down costs.
Care: Build a National Care Service, free at the point of use, with no care charges paid from the basic state pension.
Pensions: Change the triple lock to a double lock with a safety clause from April 2030, using savings to help build the care service.
Democracy: Launch a commission on electoral reform and take a commitment to change the voting system into the next election.

This is a genuine 'take back control!' I for one am looking forward to it!

Totally agree with these comments - residents of Carlton deserve to have modern leisure facilities - my children learnt to swim with Carlton Forum swimming club and it’s brilliant that future generations can too

The Council is currently consulting on an Article 4 Direction within the Netherfield area which would remove permitted development rights to change the use of houses to small HMOs of up to 6 residents, meaning planning permission would be required.

This proposal is being brought forward to help the Council better manage the concentration and distribution of HMOs, ensure balanced and sustainable communities, and address local concerns.

The Council is keen to hear from residents, landlords and businesses before any decision is made. Your feedback will help inform whether and how the Direction is implemented. Further details, including the full Article 4 Direction notice, the areas affected, and how to submit your comments, are set out on the Council’s website https://orlo.uk/0agMu
