Is Eric Pickles up to the job on Tower Hamlets?

Tower Hamlets is almost always in the News but often it is about stuff that hardly matter to the little people. And in March, Tower Hamlets got in the News about a BBC Panorama programme was aired at the end of the month.

Is Eric Pickles up to the job on Tower Hamlets?
Tower Hamlets is almost always in the News but often it is about stuff that hardly matter to the little people. And in March, Tower Hamlets got in the News about a BBC Panorama programme was aired at the end of the month.
In that programme, as shown, Eric Pickles said he would do something. He later sent into Tower Hamlets Town Hall some accountants on the promise that they were his inspectors, the big guys, in Tower Hamlets Town Hall asserting the power and the authority of big Eric! That was also supposed to serve as proof he was doing something. The accountants have been there for months. No sign yet of them letting on...
In the meantime, the big boys and some girls in and around the Parish of Fleet Street keep making forays into what they refer to as Tower Hamlets.
Most of the stuff they say appears top be linked to the belief that by labelling Tower Hamlets a
Conduit for some of today’s most odious ‘Islamists~, ‘Jihadists’ would do what big Eric could never dream of pulling off: bring dawn the regime of the real infidels that the Crusader Boys have identified as being in control of the Palace they hired on the East India Dock Road!
It must be very frustrating for the Crusaders, for Eric, for the BBC Panorama and their allies who include Cllr Peter Golds of the Conservative persuasion, which they have not brought the pharaohs down!
So what keeps to be keeping the bad guys in place over by the Black wall tunnel?
One clue appears to be that the huffs and puffs are not real; that the criticism of Tower hamlets Council is just a front for the paid professionals to stay being in that vocation without making any difference.
And most people on the streets of Tower Hamlets don’t even know what the hell is going on,

Except that they keep seeing the odd mention on the East London Advertiser that things might not be quite what they should be in the Palace of the Pravda.
And then there is the fact that there 40plus paid councillors.
No squeak from them about anything that might be out of order.
So what seems to be keeping the status quo the same as before at Mulberry Place?
There is a line that says that most of the4 noise about Tower Hamlets Council is coming from useless tossers with not idea about what they are on about.
And that most of them can be spotted in one corner of a redundant East End pub.
Most of them are too disorganised to even find their way home after they’ve had the sessions in the pub.
It is quite possible that another big boy might be behind the apparent show of confidence that is coming forth from the Clove Crescent London E12 2 BG building.
It is big Len MacLuskey of the most revered and respected Unite Union that has paid over £10 million to the Labour Party.
As the big Unite union so revered by the Labour Party, it makes sense for the Labour Party councillors to play it safe at the Town hall.
That is the secret.
More secrets may be known to readers of this post.
