Thought for today 16.07.20

TOWER HAMLETS COUNCILLORS: what are they like? The hot topic in the Borough is the decision of Executive Mayor John Biggs to impose new contracts (“Tower Rewards”) on the Council workforce.  Do Labour Councillors back him or not? Ten councillors have signed an open letter asking him to think again.  Thirty-one have not.  It’s time we got to know our councillors a bit better, so this month we’ll be sharing some quotes from Labour’s public representatives.

“I’m delighted that Tower Hamlets has this new facility that can be used by local clubs, schools and community groups so that they can take part in a wide variety of sport and physical activity programmes.”
Cllr Abdul Mukit MBE, Weavers Ward, then Cabinet Member for Culture and Youth, speaking on the opening of the all weather hockey pitch in Mile End Park, January 2018

Cllr Mukit is a taciturn chap. He does have a private twitter account, though it’s not quoted on his LBTH contact page, but it is packed with re-tweets and seems to contain nothing original.  We cannot find evidence that he has said anything since January 2018.  Cllr Mukit does not currently hold a remunerated post gifted by the Executive Mayor.

Cllr Mukit has not signed the Open Letter to the Executive Mayor.  If you would like to suggest to him that he does so, contact him on:
