Tower Hamlets led by example by building the most affordable homes anywhere in London under
@LutfurRahmanTH

From Weavers to Whitechapel, Limehouse to Lansbury
@LutfurRahmanTH
and Team Aspire have spent the past few months speaking to residents across Tower Hamlets about this issues that matter most to them.

Aspire getting things done 🤝
It was great to lay out my plans for Tower Hamlets and welcome my new cabinet in my first full council meeting.
The hard work to rebuild our borough starts now!
After seven years of failure under the current Labour Mayor, Tower Hamlets deserves better. Infighting, lack of vision and acquiescence to cuts have held back this borough. Vote Aspire for a council that will fight for you.
Mohammad Harun Miah holds onto his seat in Shadwell with 2,003 votes and another Aspire gain Ana Miah who came second with 1486 votes.

@JohnBiggsLabour
LBTH received the highest allocation of funding under the government’s New Homes Bonus scheme in 2011/12 & 2013/14. This is because Lutfur built more homes than any other authority. We get it your still a little sour after your embarrassing defeat. Hey theres always 2026 😎
John Biggs and Labour have miserably failed the people of Tower Hamlets.
🚫 Crime and ASB on the rise
🚫 No provisions for young people
🚫 Councillors in the pockets of developers.
🚫 Cut to Mother Tongue classes
🚫 Dirtier streets
Tomorrow vote them out.
No room for hate in Tower Hamlets. Aspire Councillors working for the community to ensure Tower Hamlets is a safe environment for everyone irrespective of their background.
Salam, in regards to Shoreditch mosque, I contacted committee members as soon as I heard, I was reassured that no-one was hurt or injured, the matter has been reported to the police, who in turn are investigating.
Great support amongst young voters in
#Weavers
for Fazleh Elaahi and Abul Hussain and
@CllrOhidAhmed
for Mayor. Aspire have a real plan that puts young people first. We pledge to re open the 18 youth centres closed by the current mayor. Our youth are worth investing in!
#ASPIRE
This afternoon our candidate Abdullah Al Mamun was violently attacked whilst out campaigning in Wapping. This kind of behaviour is wrong and completely unacceptable. We have reported this to the police and will allow them to investigate the matter further.
Talk about double standards. Biggs promotes his council funded sign in Whitechapel whilst cutting mother tongue classes in TH.
Whilst our youth are deprived of learning their native language, Mr Mayor puts up a sign most youngsters wont be able to even read.
He is a joke.
Tomorrow is Polling Day!
Togethers lets make a difference for the people of Weavers. Lets say no to Biggs’s reckless politics, Please come out and for vote for Kabir Ahmed. With years of local experience, he will fight for local people in the Town Hall.
