Harringey Council leader resigned because local Labour activists stopped her from ‘socially cleansing’ Haringay borough by selling off public land to an Australian Property Developer with a track record of failure:

“Let’s turn to the actual issue itself – you got into bed with an international Australian property development company that would not provide sufficient quantities of low cost housing so people could stay in the area – hence the term ‘social cleansing’…” – Marr

“We have to work in in compromise with the Private Sector” – Disgraced Blairite Haringay Council leader

“There are an awful lot of local people who simply do not buy that solution, and they are not all Corbyn supporters. David Lammy, the local MP, who is not a Momentum supporter says he is not convinced. This company has promised 500 social houses on another development – they produced 87. You see the same pattern all over the place. Great big promises from the private companies, but when it comes to the actual social housing they are not there. Other Labour councillors in your borough have said ‘the death of this private project is a victory for local people over big finance” – Disgraced Blairite Haringay Council leader

“Isn’t the fundamental truth about this that your politics, supporting Tony Blair, is losing in the Party. You have left because the Blairites are losing?” – Marr
