Summary

| Description |
English: From a Sunday Stroll on 20 August 2017.
For years this corner of Somerset Road and Rawlinson Terrace N17 has been a regular dumping spot. Why is there bedraggled bunting - remains of a row of little flags - hanging from the railings? More unwanted rubbish. Perhaps left over from the London Olympics in 2012? Or maybe from the Queen's Jubilee. I reported the dumped bags reported to Haringey Council through the free website Fix My Street. ══════════════════════════════════ § From 2012 . . . Let them eat banners Original Message ----- From : Haringey Environment Department Sent : 18 May 2012 12:07 Subject : Olympic Decoration We will be having Olympic lamp post banners all the way along the torch route - not on every lamppost, but enough to make an impact. There will also be Olympic lamp post banners all the way down Tottenham High Road (even though the southerly end is not on the route). Installation of the banners is starting on 6 June. I attach a picture of the banners. There will also be a flag at the Civic Centre. We will also be using London 2012 Community Celebration packs to decorate Council venues (these include bunting and banners). We are doing site visits to confirm the locations, and we are looking at leisure centres, libraries and other public-facing sites like Apex House, 48 Station Road, Bruce Castle Park Pavillion and the Civic Centre. Original Message ----- To : Cllr Alan Strickland From : Alan Stanton Sent : Sunday, May 20, 2012 05:33 PM Cc : Labour councillors Subject : Olympic decoration - bread & circuses Hi Alan Can I ask how much these extra lamppost banners and celebration packs are costing? And especially who's paying? Bread and circuses. Though for everyone except the rich it seems to be cuts to the bread-and-butter services. While for some people it's food banks. And a few others rummage in waste bins. Original Message ----- From : Cllr Claire Kober (Leader of the Council) To : Cllr Alan Stanton Cc : Labour Councillors Sent : Sunday, May 20, 2012 7:54 PM Subject : Olympic decoration - bread & circuses Alan The Mayor of London gave every borough £50k for Olympic decorations. This was announced some time ago. Claire Original Message ----- From : Alan Stanton To : Cllr Claire Kober Cc : Labour councillors Sent : Sunday, May 20, 2012 10:49 PM Subject : Olympic decoration - bread & circuses Hi Claire, Thanks for the information. Splendid news! Let them eat banners. And repay loans in bunting. Alan |
