Deptford Parish Council latest July 2016
The rush for new parishes gathers pace
The community of Deptford, London are looking to join thousands of other areas and bring power to local neighbourhoods by handing in a petition on 19 July 2016 to Lewisham Borough Council to create a new local (parish and town) council in the locality.
This follows ‘hot on the heels’ of over 200 local councils, which have been created over the last decade. This includes 11 new local councils, which have been established in recent years as direct result of support provided by NALC’s Create A Council campaign and its county associations in Macclesfield, Finham, Westgate, Kidderminster, Sutton Coldfield (Birmingham), Pannal, Kennington, South Willesbrough, Queens’s Park (London), Chadwick End and Bingley (Leeds).
Local councils are the most local tier of local government, at the very heart of the community, giving neighbourhoods a voice and helping people feel more involved in the decisions that affect them.
Currently only a third of the population is represented by local councils and NALC has been at the forefront of calls for a fundamental shift of stronger local democracy and a fundamental shift of power to local people, so that all of England is ‘parished’. So bringing a change in how people and communities can influence the way their lives are being run via public services.
Cllr Ken Browse, Chairman of NALC, said: "I’m delighted to support the campaign to set up a parish council in Deptford as this will give more power to the local people. It will provide the community with a democratic voice and an accountable structure for taking action on local priorities.
“Deptford joins the parish revolution that is taking place across the country with scores of communities in the process of setting up a new local council.
"There are already around 10,000 local councils in England, working towards improving community well-being and providing better services at a local level. They represent all local residents and businesses, enabling power to be devolved to those who know and care about their local community. They also aim to give tax-payers better value for money.
“It’s essential that we also develop a new approach to local democracy and local services at the most local level. That will enable us to put in place a bottom up neighbourhood democracy, which will help to bridge the disconnect between communities and power held at Westminster and Whitehall."
Ray Barron-Woolford, campaigner for Deptford Parish Council, said: “For far too long communities feel disengaged. Whether it is around betting shops, planning decisions, lack of youth service provision or pensioners lunch clubs. Giving local people a real voice on planning and licensing can the be the positive future of real community engagement.”

Labour Party. Ray Woolford. Steve Topple and more on Talk radio Europe TODAY 1 July 2016
Today at 12pm UK time RADIO JONES is back....
With the first Friday of the month bringing my co-host Ray Woolford to share the airwaves with me and we will start by looking at the end of the longest running war in the western hemisphere...that of the Columbian four-sided war that has involved narco cartels, rightwing paramilitaries, the leftist guerrilla Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (the Farc), and the government army..

#JeanLambertMEP will join us to speak speak from the EU and Green Party perspective about Brexit.
And then we will hear from Martin Winiecki whose perspective on the impact of Brexit on Europe is robust and frankly very encouraging. Capitalist globalization has corroded the social fabric of societies around the world, destroyed solidarity among people and established an anonymous hyper-individualized climate of fierce competition, loneliness and struggle for survival. Is this a new beginning fro Europe?
The brillian London Gp Youssef El-Gingihyis well placed to present an analysis of the political turmoil in Britain working within the NHS and experiencing the impact that various government policies have on the healthcare system. His concern now is that if the Labour party dont find a solution to the Blairite-Corbynite divide within their ranks, then the country will be exposed to an ever-stronger far right agenda at the hands of the Tories. He talks to us from London today.
Steve Topple has provided some of the most enlightened and substantiated commentary over the last week and continues to do so. He is a commentator who shold be read and listened to if you wnat to ensure that you are getting the facts and not the fiction often presented by the mainstream news sources. Today he will present some interesting information about the infighting within UK politics.
And it is shown that child-rearing in the USA mirrors the social and political climate of the times and with the surprising scenario being played out on the political stage currently on the other side of the pond, #PaulaFass, author of The End of American Childhood, takes a look at the idea of children being raised as the States gears up for a controversial election.

The Left case to #Voteleave
According to
the media and polls, I’m in the wrong camp. As a 19-year-old university
student and Labour party member, the demographics say I should have a
tattoo of the EU flag over my heart and the phrase “ever closer union”
should send shivers of joy down my spine. When strangers find out I’m a
‘Leave’ campaigner they think I’m a Ukip supporter, when friends find
out I’m met with mostly confusion. This is a testament to how
under-represented the “Lexit” (left-wing exit) argument has been in the
referendum debate.
It is so underrepresented that many forget that the British left was
traditionally Eurosceptic. Tony Benn and Bob Crowe both campaigned
against the EU right up until the end, and if one or both were still
here today, we might have seen a strongly led and listened to Lexit
campaign. As it is we have had a debate almost entirely dominated by the
Conservatives and UKIP. The only Leave arguments many people hear are
those of BoJo, Gove, Farage and IDS - a group to whom Labour supporters
are unlikely to listen. No wonder Remain has such a lead amongst Labour
voters. The case for Lexit is fairly simple, looking at three factors -
the EU’s lack of democracy, its commitment to neo-liberalism and its
record on international issues.
The first is
obvious to see. The major principle behind Parliamentary Democracy is
that laws should be written and passed only by those who are elected by,
and are accountable to, the people whose lives are governed by those
laws. While we remain part of the EU, that principle cannot exist.
The EU
Commission, the group responsible for drafting all EU legislation, is
completely unelecected. Juncker and the Commission are, now in office,
completely unaccountable to the people, decisions in the EU are made
with all the transparency of a concrete wall - making those in power
even less accountable.
The European
Parliament, which is elected, has far less power compared to the
Commission than the Commons has over the UK Government. It cannot
initiate legislation, and in certain areas, including taxation, it gives
only an “advisory opinion” i.e. its decision is not binding.
The EU is not
just undemocratic; it is anti-democratic. When democracy gets in the way
of the neoliberal European Union project, democracy must try again
until it gets results that satisfy the project. There are two very
obvious moments when this showed: the treatment of Greece and Portugal.
In Greece an anti-austerity government was elected, and then the Greek
people voted against austerity in a referendum. They were strong-armed
into following austerity under threats of a liquidity crisis and an
economic collapse, until Prime Minister Tsipras signed a deal
effectively giving the EU the ability to govern Greece over and above
the wishes of the Greek people.
In Portugal, a
left wing, anti-austerity, anti-EU coalition won an absolute
parliamentary majority, and yet have been blocked from forming a
government by the Conservative President, backed up by the European
Commission. Can any left-winger, or anybody who believes in democracy,
seriously continue supporting such an organisation?
The EU’s
commitment to right-wing, neo-liberal economics is also obvious. Not
only has the EU imposed austerity across Europe, with hugely damaging
effects, but the Eurozone has effectively banned Keynesian economics,
with a 2011 treaty committed to eliminating structural deficits and
outlawing expansionary fiscal policy.
There is a
reason that the Remain campaign is funded by Goldman Sachs, Morgan
Stanley and CitiGroup, and that there are nearly the same number of
professional lobbyists in Brussels as European Commission staff.
Brussels is second only to Washington in its concentration of special
interest lobbyists attempting to influence legislation, and some estimates say lobbyists influence up to 75% of European legislation.
Any analysis of
the funding and power structures of the EU shows that this is not a
Union run in the interests of European citizens. Rather, it is a club
for big business to do business - free movement of capital allows large
multinationals to move operations between countries with ease, giving
them much greater power relative to national governments, while the free
movement of Labour has not been part of an internationalist attempt to
remove borders, but rather an opportunity for unscrupulous companies to
bring in lower-wage workers from different regions, leading to greater
wage compression and an undercutting of working conditions in many
areas.
Many in the
Remain camp argue that we need to stay in the EU to tackle international
issues, ignoring the fact that cross-border co-operation does not
require an undemocratic political union. Let’s examine the EU’s record
on three of the most important international issues of this century: the
financial crisis, the migrant crisis and tax evasion.
The EU’s
response to the financial crisis was to impose damaging austerity, with
the euro area facing economic pain far beyond that seen in the UK, while
the ECB’s one-size-fits-all interest rate proved wholly inadequate to
respond to the disparate needs of the different economies within the
Eurozone.
Eight years after the great crash, and the results are plain to see:
The Spanish and Greek economies are nearly completely destroyed,
Italy’s economy is barely bigger than it was a decade ago, France has
economic stagnation and unemployment figures almost double that of the
UK, and even the Eurozone’s powerhouse Germany has seen growth only at
the cost of real terms wage cuts for its workers.
Turning then to
the migrant crisis, probably the largest humanitarian crisis Europe has
seen in the 21st century, the EU’s response has been both incompetent
and inhumane. The inadequate responses of the EU have seen Greece pushed
to the brink of collapse, borders rising across Europe and the return
of far-right nationalism to the political mainstream, with still no
viable solution to the crisis beyond a dodgy deal
with the Turkish President Erdogan - a nationalist dictator with little
regard for human rights or international law - to illegally deport
refugees back to Turkey.
Finally, a look
at tax evasion - something the EU has never seriously clamped down on.
The record on closing down tax loopholes and EU tax havens is abysmal,
and can we expect any less by a body currently led by Jean-Claude
Juncker, who spent most of his political career running an EU tax haven.
Examining all
this, it seems strange to me that so many on the British left are still
banging the drum for the EU. Some argue that it is necessary for British
workers’ rights, to that I would argue that the best defence of the
rights of British workers is, and always has been, the Labour movement.
The idea that our rights and protections were given to us by benevolent
European leaders, and not fought for through workers’ struggles is
laughable. If Juncker is the greatest defence of working rights in the
UK, then the British Labour movement is well and truly finished. Other
say that a vote to leave would strengthen the far right but, in fact, it
is partly the abject failure of the EU to deal with the aftermath of
the economic and refugee crises which has helped fuel the resurgence of
far right nationalism across Europe, and a vote to remain will see us
tied into a political union with increasingly more fascists in
government.
Vote for democracy, vote to unshackle ourselves from a right-wing cartel, vote leave.

Ray Woolford on Talk Radio Europe Show talking.. #Toryelectionfraud
Pippa Jones added 6 new photos.
It´s the first Friday of the month which means that I welcome my co-host Ray Woolford.....
And we start with a story that you wont find elsewhere. The #Conservativeelectionexpenses and #fraudscandal threatens to plunge the government into crisis, as police forces across the country investigate its candidates’ election spending. With allegations of micro-targeting voters in marginal sets and paywalling, this looks to go right to the very top and Ray has the news on this which could completely destablise the basis on which the Tories won the last election.

What is
going on with the British prison service ? 33.000 prisoners were injured
last year whilst in custody. Children in state care are going from
children's home to prison and make up third of all inmates ! An
ambulance is called to a British prison every 20 mins ! We talk to
former deputy mayor for policing in London #LeeJasper
as the government rolls out plans for more privatisation, in a year
that a record number of prison staff were arrested & in some cases
jailed for, among other things, smuggling heroin & other drugs into
jails !
Last week saw the government bring in legislation on the use of so-called ¨legal highs¨. Some experts warn that this is a flawed legislation and we will speak to Amanda Feilding, Countess of Wemyss, of #theBeckleyFoundation who will speak to us live from Amsterdam where she is attending the 2016 Interdisciplinary Conference on Psychedilic Research where global experts will be looking at, amongst other things, therapeutic potential of psychedelic drugs for conditions such as PTSD, anxiety, depression and addiction.
Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (#MIMA), is one of the UK’s leading galleries for modern and contemporary art and craft. It´s aim is to shake up the art world and make the disciplines accessible to the masses and for the masses- It does this by drawing in themes from unlikely sources and opening up it´s open spaces for use by a homeless choir. Elinor Morgan is one of it´s curators and she will tell us about what they are doing and why.
A recent report reveals an alarming figure, that one in five children under the age of five in the UK are being referred to social services. Recent high-profile cases of toddler abuse have caused a 'climate of fear' to fester among those working with young children, leaving care agencies terrified another death will be reported on their watch. Marilyn Hawes of #EnoughAbuseUK joins us to tell us what is wrong with the system of protection.
Wim Zwijnenburg of Dutch organiation #PaxforPeace is Policy Advisor on Security & Disarmament and he joins us to highlight issues with the many war zones that we have around the world and focus on Iraq and the people who are suffering.....lest we forget. The operation for Fallujah has come at a dire human cost, with thousands of civilians trapped between ISIL fighters and the advancing Iraqi army.
