I suspect that this is only news in the hope that it will lead the news-hounds off the sent of much deeper corruption in politics.

I'm back in Mile End frequently when visiting family or watching football from Liverpool. I love visiting, I love being back home even though I have no intention of ever living there again.
I know one thing, Rahman is a wrong'un and I'll do anything legally to make his life uncomfortable.

Like others on here . I was brought up on the ocean estate until 1983 . Couldn't believe it when a few years later when one of my best mates growing up was fluent in Bengali and he's white . I knew then how far it had gone downhill shame it was great until the late 70s early 80s .

How many of us actually live in the Borough these days, most of us moved away decades ago and are watching from afar?

Yeah, the Ocean Estate was a fucking shit hole back in the 80's.
At least there were still decent boozers on most corners back then...all gone and replaced by Perfect Fried Chicken shops.

Sad to say but you're bang on.
I was born there and moved out when I was 24. I worked for LBTH from 1997-2003 and it has always been corrupt. Pretty sure it's where the woke brigade were formed as well.

This is a cultural issue and we are enriched by it. Anyone annoyed by someone convicted of electoral fraud being elected once again to the position he abused and used to enrich himself with, is probably a racist and cultural imperialist who wants to impose our cultural norms on others.
Some of you really need to use this as a teachable moment, reflect on your privilege, and be the change you want to see.
