Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Local MPs write to Mayor of London on Green Lanes pollution
Hi everyone,
I have been asked to share with you a letter that our local Labour MPs David Lammy and Catherine West sent to the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan to make him aware of the dangerous levels of air pollution affecting residents in Harringay, on the Ladder and in the Gardens.
The letter asks Sadiq Khan to consider supporting the London Borough of Haringey to address this issue through the Mayor's Air Quality Fund.
As always, well done to the residents who have raised the profile of this important issue and gathered valuable evidence to support informed action.
Best regards,
Anna
Former Labour councillor for Harringay ward (2022-2026)

Thanks for co-ordinating this (but where on earth in "Haringey Green Lanes". Could the MPs mean Harringay?

Hi Hugh,
I didn't coordinate this letter so cannot take any credit.
No need to convince me about the correct nomenclature. I vividly remember our many exchanges about this over the years! :)
Best,
Anna

A positive step in terms of publicising the issue.
Not sure why they under-egged the extent of the pollution. Also, I would hate to see public funds bailing these companies out. I'd rather see them used to prosecute and enforce the harm they are causing. The cost of any remedy ought to be borne by the restaurants. But I suppose getting it fixed is the priority.
