Harrow Council
Born and bred under this council which is why I funked off to live under Watford Council who (touch wood) haven't caused any problems and seem to be quite sensible about stuff.

Our glorious PM has recently announce that the answer to the trouble with yoof today is more Youth Centres! Just as Harrow Council have finished knocking down the town's only Youth and Community Centre for "affordable housing" which was meant to be designated for people on a low wage. Instead it's mostly gone to "buy to let" landlords.

So no youth centre and the "affordable housing" has gone to only the wealthiest people. The one saving grace is that they've bought flats in the crappiest part of the borough.

And finally, the mentally and physically disabled of the borough were being taught life skills such as computers, admin, cookery and all sorts in one pokey building in Northolt. It was funded by the council and prepared some for living in the wider world and it gave the more serious cases a purpose in life. The council have been looking for an excuse to shut this place down and not fund it for the past 20 years and they finally got their wish when the landlords of the building wanted it back (to build affordable housing!) and the council can't be arsed to find a new place for them so they're all supposed to sit at home and stare at four walls instead.

Harrow Council may have the funniest MPs ( Eileen Kinnear ) but they're all a bunch of cnuts.

p.s. it was designated the worst council in London as it was making no provision for athletes for the Olympics. If anything it was cutting funding for sports.
