Can I borrow you trolley?
I'm doing a move this Friday morning and I'm wondering if anyone has a trolley I could borrow? I would return it on the same day, an hour or two later.

Fred Rodgers commented on Sue Pearson's blog post CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION FAILS ITS RESIDENTS
"Mary Durcan details the works in the pipeline that David Graves’ “campaigners” are quite rightly demanding be done sooner rather than later. Both of them throw around figures that CoL is spending in GLE but both of them ignore the…"

"Before Mary Durcan posted her comment on this blog, she sent an email to the other councillors in Cripplegate ward detailing what renovation work had already been done. I replied saying she was missing the point of Sue’s blog, which was not…"

Mary Durcan commented on Sue Pearson's blog post CITY OF LONDON CORPORATION FAILS ITS RESIDENTS

As mentioned in my last blog https://www.goldenlaneestate.org/profiles/blogs/the-beginning-of-the-end-of-the-city-s-discredited-standards, a significant proportion of City residents signed a petition last year declaring that they had no confidence in the City Corporation’s “standards" regime.

Last year, more than 1,100 City residents - many of them in our ward of Cripplegate - signed a petition declaring 'no confidence' in the City's standards regime.
That petition called for two specific reforms.
The first was to let your elected representatives speak and vote on matters which affected both you and them as residents. After nine months of intense…
