Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
"London council named as England's 'most rotten' borough"
Haringey has been named as England's 'most rotten' borough.
Yesterday, The Standard reported that, per 100,000 of population in Haringey, there were 20 upheld, formal Complaints.
This, on the basis of data from the Local Government Ombudsman.
This is the second year running that the London Borough of Culture 2027 has secured the top place for the number of Complaints upheld by the Ombudsman.
The previous leadership was a menace to public money. They (we) made multi-million pound losses on municipal property wheeling-and-dealing. The current leadership has since failed to get a robust grip on finances.
Are any residents surprised?

Not that surprised. Imagine if everyone found the time to complain - they wouldn't be knocked off their perch for quite some years

Yes I think that's the sad reality. Most people don't even bother complaining because they have given up. I thought all London boroughs were like this but apparently this one leads the pack

That’s terrible.
What is your view on three of the LibDems’ four London authorities having a higher proportion of complaints upheld by the Ombudsman than Haringey?
