3 million from Fairview, for Hampden Road it's a gravy train, we won't see much of it in Harringay, but I'm sure Labour Party support in Harringay would like to see it materialise in our community, as we all would.

<p>As Micheal helpfully notes (above) this confirms what LBH told me: that the HTH CIL couldn't be spent on the 100% public-owned HTH. </p>
<p>They said it could only be spent on "strategic infrastructure projects" - what if there are none nearby? If Harringay gets it, no need to thank Crouch End formally <img src="http://www.bkserv.net/images/Grin.gif"/></p>
