Voting over Carr Manor Conservative, UKIP or Green just helps Labour. Lib Dem Councillors such as Mark Harris and Brenda Lancaster represented our area for decades. Voting for anyone but the Lib Dems will mean that Labour win. Play Area Worries that new play area isn’t fit for purpose The new children’s play area on Carr Manor Fields has been branded unfit for purpose and unsafe after concerns which local residents raised with the Labour councillors before building began still have not been addressed. Six months on they are now plagued by anti-social behaviour, dangerously parked cars, broken glass and the fear of serious accidents due to the inadequate safety provisions at the play area which is so near to busy Stonegate Road. At a recent residents’ meeting (which many of those affected said they were not notified of) many of those attending were disappointed to hear that some of their concerns (including speed and parking restrictions) were not being considered by the Council. Local Liberal Democrat campaigner Chris Howley has approached the council on the issue. Chris said, ‘Moortown and Meanwood residents are again feeling let down by the Labour-run council. Consultation and communication need to significantly improve to avoid more money being wasted on ill- thought-out schemes. Safety improvements are urgently needed to rectify these problems, involving additional spending which could have been avoided had they been taken into account before the play area was built. 'Liberal Democrats are calling for these safety improvements to be made without delay. In addition we would like to see the 30mph speed limit zone to include this area, a pedestrian crossing for families using the Field, adequate policing as well as a second play area on King Alfred’s Field to reduce the Local Lib Dem campaigners Chris Howley (left) and Ian Downling are furious congestion at the Carr Manor Fields site.

  • Loud Proud Passion and Politics in the English Defence League Makes Us Confront the Complexities of Anti-Islamist/Anti-Muslim Fervor
    New Ethnographies ‘These voices of English nationalism make for difficult listening. The great strength of Hilary PILKINGTON Pilkington’s unflinching ethnography is her capacity to confound and challenge our political and preconceptions and makes us think harder. This is an important, difficult and brave book.’ Les Back, Professor of Sociology, Goldsmiths, University of London ‘Pilkington offers fresh and crucial insights into the politics of fear. Her unflinchingly honest depiction of the EDL breaks apart stereotypes of rightist activists as simply dupes, thugs, and racists and Loud proud PASSION AND POLITICS IN THE ENGLISH DEFENCE LEAGUE makes us confront the complexities of anti-Islamist/anti-Muslim fervor. This terrific, compelling book is a must-read for scholars and readers concerned about the global rise of populist movements on the right.’ Kathleen Blee, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, University of Pittsburgh Loud and proud uses interviews, informal conversations and extended observation at English Defence League events to critically reflect on the gap between the movement’s public image and activists’ own understandings of it. It details how activists construct the EDL and themselves as ‘not racist, not violent, just no longer silent’ through, among other things, the exclusion of Muslims as a possible object of racism on the grounds that they are a religiously not racially defined Loud group. In contrast, activists perceive themselves to be ‘second-class citizens’, disadvantaged and discriminated against by a two-tier justice system that privileges the rights of others. This failure to recognise themselves as a privileged white majority explains why ostensibly intimidating EDL street demonstrations marked by racist chanting and nationalistic flag waving are understood by activists as standing ‘loud and proud’; the only way of being heard in a political system governed by a politics of silencing.

  • Tackling the Holiday Hunger, Holiday Inactivity and Holiday Isolation Faced by Some of the Poorest Children in Leeds, and Often Their Families, Too
    About Healthy Holidays Healthy Holidays is now in its third year – tackling the holiday hunger, holiday inactivity and holiday isolation faced by some of the poorest children in Leeds, and often their families, too. Leeds Community Foundation delivers this programme with support from Leeds City Council, and from local food partners FareShare Yorkshire and Rethink Food. In 2019, Leeds Healthy Holidays reached 5,441 young people and 903 parents/carers through 77 community-based partners delivering a range of fun and engaging activities, all of which included at least one nutritious meal. Healthy Holidays 2020 – Covid Response In the face of Covid-19 crisis, Leeds Community Foundation (LCF) and Leeds City Council have been actively working with food provision charities and local community organisations on an Emergency Food Provision Process to deliver much-needed food and support to these vulnerable children, their families and other vulnerable adults. As an immediate response to lockdown, LCF funded 31 community organisations to provide “Healthy Holidays Covid-19 Response” projects; these have generally provided food parcels alongside a combination of online activities and activity boxes delivered to the doorstep. Activities vary with each project, and includes sport, physical activity, creative arts, cookery, indoor/outdoor gardening and mental wellbeing support. Some groups are also using group chat, video-conferencing and livestreaming to engage and support their children and families. Projects have been encouraged to post activity on social media using the hashtag #HHLeedsCovid19. LCF secured additional funding from Direct Line & National Emergency Fund (NET), and successfully secured funding from Department for Education for provision during the summer holidays.

  • Our Ref: 0483/19 Could You Please Provide Me with the Total Number of Islamophobic Hate Crimes for Each Year Over the Last Five
    Our ref: 0483/19 Could you please provide me with the total number of Islamophobic hate crimes for each year over the last five years? ( from 1st January 2013 to 31st December 2018). If it is possible, i would like the data to be broken down by the day they were reported. Please see the attached table which provides Islamophobic Hate Crimes recorded, broken down by date recorded, and Ward area. Please note recent increases in hate crime are predominantly associated with administrative change in relation to Force crime recording processes which have resulted in an increased likelihood of a crime being recorded following an incident report to the Police. Crime increases have been reported across a number of crime types this year and the increases in hate crime follow a similar pattern to related offences such as public order and low level violence without injury. The force has made improvements to how information about hate incidents is recorded. A number of sub-categories for the recording of faith and disability hate crimes are being introduced to get a better understanding of the impact of national and international events on local communities and improve and target services for victims. Recent publicity may also have encouraged victims of hate incidents and crimes to come forward and report their experience to the police. West Yorkshire Police support the annual Hate Crime Awareness Week in partnership with the Police and Crime Commissioner in order to highlight the issue of hate crime. The campaign aims to give people a better understanding of what hate crime is and encourage victims of hate incidents to report them.

    Hi Everyone Hope you are all safe and well, and keeping busy and happy at work, home or in the garden. Here is our first C19 Newsletter: • MEANWOOD VALLEY URBAN FARM needs your help! It goes without saying that we're all living through extraordinary and troubling times and unfortunately, I'm afraid that Meanwood Valley Urban Farm is going to struggle to get through this. We are seeking your help to make sure we can open our gates again when this crisis is over. We've had to close to all our visitors and we can no longer host the 50 sessions for vulnerable adults or the outdoor activities for around 150 local school kids each week. This all means a huge and unprecedented loss of income. We've launched a fundraising appeal to help us steer the Farm through the crisis. In our 40th year, we had big plans to celebrate our big birthday with you all. And with a little help, I hope we still can. We realise it's a hard time for many people, so any donation you can give would be hugely appreciated. While we're closed to visitors and participants; life on the Farm goes on. I'm so proud of the staff and volunteers who are still working daily to look after the animals, including our new lambs and chicks, growing food in our market garden and keeping the site safe. We'll continue to look after the Farm and all of the animals throughout this, in line with public health guidance.
