Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
All 3 Haringey paddling pools out of action
To save anyone else the same faff we’ve just encountered - please be aware that ALL THREE of Haringey’s paddling pools are currently out of order! All of them were due to open today - but none of them have (and Priory Park is out of action for a longer period). What with Clissold Park also being out of action for potentially the next 6 weeks, it’s not looking good for children’s water play in our local area. (My additional particular irritation is that when I checked on the pools and opening dates literally 2 days ago, they were all still anticipated as opening - hence my fruitless search for cooling down options today…!)

Typical of Harringey Council not having pools open in a heatwave

It's sensible to get onto the new councillors quickly to try to set our expectations, but they are not idiots. A school child understands the differing power structures of governments (political and bureaucratic).
I voted for fresh, new energy in the Council, not to have them listen to the same tired old voices boomersplaining their contributions to the failed council of the past. Let the new people and their new approaches have a go. I'm going to hope that they don't include alienating their colleagues and council officers by constantly and publicly undermining them. That alone will likely make them more productive than those who are still burdened by personal and political grievance. They will make mistakes but hopefully they will plough their own more bountiful furrow than the generation before them.
