Islington Tribune - LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Published: 16 March 2007
 
Just asset stripping

FLOGGING off more than 200 properties is Islington Council’s latest money-making wheeze. The Lib Dems are risking the special character of our borough for short-term financial gain.
The council’s budget showed there is no need for a sale to raise funds. Even if there was, a similar level of funds could be raised by borrowing against rent from the properties. What we are seeing is asset stripping, pure and simple.
CLLR RICHARD GREENING
Deputy leader of the Labour opposition
