Well, financial risk didn't put #BHCC off commissioning the disastrous i360, which has lost them (us) £51m. 🤷♀️

Is #BHCC the most anti-democratic council in the country?
Leader Bella Sankey signed an £18.86m Direct Award Contract with company only incorporated 4 days after Labour won historic majority in Brighton & Hove using a Procurement Act loophole to bypass competition.

#BHCC mistakenly gives secret report to journalists, after spending £36,000 taxpayers money defending its release in the High Court.
Lies. Redactions. Debt. Zero accountability.

I have just stepped down from a local lobbying group I founded in #Brighton a few years ago.
It's a #Labour council, which does its best - in assorted ways - to side-step engagement on issues where it knows there's local opposition.
This is destroying grassroots democracy. 🤷♀️

Two of my illustrations were included in the Fall 2025 issue of Tell magazine published by BHCC. The theme is music. This image was based on the lyrics of “Penny Lane” by the Beatles. I do not incorporate any AI.

Astonishing resignation letter to the #LabourParty.
Though I'm not a member of Labour - or any political party - as someone who runs a local lobbying group in his constituency, I can certainly see where he's coming from (and why he's going).

🎶 Don't you want me, baby? 🎶
No, I don't, not in my flat at 4,000 decibels at 10:15pm on a Wednesday night. 🫤

...but what they ARE interested in is handing out licences they don't put out to tender, and frequently redacting information in FOI requests (one saying they couldn't share safety info for a beach gig "in case it upset the people who worked there")...generally, what a bloody shower.

...at the service area of Soho House, along with other unsightly detritus, in the conservation area (on an A road) because it didn't have planning permission, they're not interested in the effect on residents of high-decibel festivals (listening to one now, whether I want to or not)...

They're not interested in coaches parking on a new multi-million pound bus lane, thus making it inoperable, they're not interested in breaches of planning in a Regency Conservation Area, they demanded bespoke, elegant fencing be removed, which was masking a collection of industrial bins...

#BHCC (Brighton/Hove City Council) are refusing to reply to emails from me, even though I write on behalf of a local constituency ward representing over 1,000 people.
Their stock answer is that I should open a formal complaint, which - of course - would be dismissed by them, as in the past.

#Brighton in summer = nightmare.
Public spaces hired out to commerical companies for pennies (they make millions), who run EAR-SPLITTINGLY LOUD gigs, regardless of the tens of thousands of local residents who object.
BANG BANG BANG BANG
And repeat until autumn.

Why would a local council enter into a contract to build and let out beach huts, not put the project to tender, and redact certain information about the company which 'won' the contract 'as it constitutes personal data under the Data Protection Act 2018' when answering an FOI request?

Brighton & Hove City Council have rapped me over the knuckles for:-
1) complaining about a problem they created, and have done nothing about for the past 5 years (as they admit)
2) copying my emails to assorted others, including my MP and the local press
I run a local lobbying group, btw.

My guess is someone fucked up, and multiple departments have done their best not to own up to it.
I wrote back yesterday thanking her for the apology, saying it's a jolly good job I'm a Rottweiler. (It's a Taurean thing. 🤷♀️)
Shameful #BHCC. Do better.
Ends.

"Saved the city"?!
The annual cost to #BHCC of interest and repayments of the outstanding £51m is around £2.2m until 2041!
While Ms Willingham is raking in 99% of future profits.
FFS.

'The new owner of the Brighton i360 has agreed to give Brighton and Hove City Council a 1 per cent share of future revenues.' 😶
#BHCC have written of £51m of taxpayers' money, after the commercially unviable #i360 was approved by just a show of hands.
Why aren't people going to jail?

#BHCC (#Brighton & Hove City Council) just wrote off £51m for the #i360 debacle.
A great example of why councils should not be in control of millions of pounds of taxpayers' money.
(Council Tax rise this year of 4.99%)

Asked my first question at a council meeting.
Received applause after I'd read it out, which was a tad disconcerting, as I've done standup. 😶
Anyway, can confirm one of my local councillors isn't fictitious after all, unless that was a cardboard cutout of him sitting in the chamber.

Every #BHCC administration (Cons, Green & Lab) since then has come to power pledging to renegotiate the #Veolia deal. Then following legal advice they've all reluctantly concluded it's not possible unless they pay off the rest of the contract, pretty much in full...
