Stand Up to Lambeth Council
Windrush Square, Brixton, London. Sat 8 Oct 2016
The Hemans Estate in Vauxhall is under threat from Lambeth Council
Ten libraries are being 'stolen' byt Lambeth and some given to a private gym company to run
People were asked to wear pink for the protest
Andrew Coopers poster shows some of the reasons people are fighting Lambeth
and he holds his 4-headed sculpture of the villians of Lambeth Council: Lambeth Labour leader Lib Peck, Cabinet Member for Housing Cllr Matthew Bennett, Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Business and Culture Jack Hopkins and Sue Foster, Strategic Director, Neighbourhoods and Growth.
Despite it being a protest against the Labour Council, the Labour party came with a stall
people argued with them and asked them to leave
but they refused
and police came to protect them
Savills are a leading agency in social cleansing and Lambeth works with them
Andrew points out Liz Peck
