Protest On The Town Hall Steps



On the evening of Tuesday, the 30th of September, a large crowd of Residents Against Pollution supporters braved the chill and gathered on the Waltham Forest Town Hall steps to voice their concerns about:
  • The implications of the North London Waste Plan (NLWP) on the health of the residents of Waltham Forest.
  • The lack of resident consultation on the NLWP so far.
  • The fact that the LBWF Cabinet is already tabling documents on the North London Waste Strategy, about proposals for the disposal of the borough's domestic waste (Strategic Environmental Assessment and Adoption of The North London Joint Waste Strategy ) which seem to overlap the decisions being made on the North London Waste Plan and therefore residents should be consulted.
  • The fact that incineration is being embraced as a safe, efficient and ready technology to dispose of waste to meet the EU Landfill Directive targets. We don't want incinerators!

We will be meeting again on the Waltham Forest Town Hall steps on Tuesday, the 14th of October, 6:30pm to lobby councillors attending the Full Council meeting.

SEE YOU THERE!
