  • CHASE Residents' Association
    CHASE Residents’ Association Via: www.chaseresidents.org.uk CHASE Residents’ Association submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s consultation on proposed changes to ward boundaries within the London Borough of Croydon We wish to draw the Commission’s attention to difficulties that would be posed by putting into practice draft recommendations for changes to ward boundaries within the Addiscombe area of Croydon Central. We propose an alternative re-drawing of boundaries, a position we believe is in keeping with the views of a number of neighbouring residents’ associations and individuals. Established communities The notional boundaries of the “community” of Addiscombe are distinct from the present electoral ward of Addiscombe in that the community includes a sizeable part of the present Ashburton Ward. Addiscombe Road forms the southern boundary, in both electoral and community terms, for both wards. Residents of Fairfield Ward to the south do not identify with the community of Addiscombe. Within the current electoral wards of Addiscombe and Ashburton there is a more distinct community-based division between: • The western end, where residents living near East Croydon Station gravitate towards shops, schools, churches and facilities in the area between Cherry Orchard Road and Clyde Road. • The eastern side, where the Lower Addiscombe Road is the main district centre serving a community extending from east of Ashburton Park to Elgin Road to the west. Difficulties presented by the proposed boundaries Creating the proposed new wards of Addiscombe West & Park Hill and Addiscombe East by imposing an arbitrary border between Addiscombe/Ashburton and extending these wards south of Addiscombe Road would include areas with no natural affinity with Addiscombe.

  • The Future of Fairfield Halls
    THE FUTURE OF FAIRFIELD HALLS Sean Creighton, Norbury resident, historian, and Co-ordinator of the Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Network A discussion contribution by Sean FRED SCOTT, CROYDON PIANIST, ON WORKING WITH FH FH has always been co-operative in allowing me to book events there focused on performances involving local young artists across genres of music. ‘Soundpractice has staged events including lunchtime concerts, pre-concert foyer performances and events for last year's Coleridge-Taylor Festival. This last especially was a great forum for young people to perform; some students of mine were able to have premiered a piece they had written around SCT, also involving LMP in the performance. Last November saw local Youth Theatre Company Studio 74 give the first performance in Ashcroft Theatre of a new musical by Stella Coussell (South London composer) called 'Song for the World', based around the life of SCT, a further performance for BHM 2013 is currently being arranged. in addition, Soundpractice has been able to put on concerts as fund-raisers for Skeletal Cancer Action Trust, some of these have featured people affected by that disease. More of these concerts are planned for 2014. There will be a series of concerts in Spring 2014 which will raise funds for SCAT, involving a celebration of the 80th birthday of eminent British composer, and South London resident, Justin Connolly, who will also be performing himself. Future concerts in 2014 will also include prominent international artists in recital who bring their considerable following to Croydon. Included in current planning is to stage a major international-reach multi-genre music festival culminating in a collaboration to find instrumentalists, composers and conductors of excellence.

  • Candidates North West Region
    Page | 1 LIBERAL/LIBERAL DEMOCRAT CANDIDATES IN THE NORTH WEST REGION 1945-2015 Constituencies in the counties of Cheshire, Cumbria and Lancashire INCLUDING SDP CANDIDATES in the GENERAL ELECTIONS of 1983 and 1987 PREFACE The North West Region was a barren area for the Liberal/Liberal Democratic Party for decades with a higher than average number of constituencies left unfought after the 1920s in many cases. After a brief revival in 1950, in common with most regions in the UK, when the party widened the front considerably, there ensued a further bleak period until the 1970s. In 1983-87, as with other regions, approximately half the constituencies were fought by the SDP as partners in the Alliance. 30 or more candidates listed have fought elections in constituencies in other regions, one in as many as five. Cross-checking of these individuals has taken time but otherwise the compilation of this regional Index has been relatively straight forward compared with others. Special note has been made of the commendable achievements of ‘pioneer’ candidates who courageously carried the fight into the vast swathe of Labour-held constituencies across the industrial zone of the region beginning in the 1970s. The North West Region has produced its fair share of personalities who have flourished in fields outside parliamentary politics. Particularly notable are the candidates, some of whom were briefly MPs, whose long careers began just after World War I and who remained active as candidates until after World War II. (Note; there were four two-member constituencies in Lancashire, and one in Cheshire, at the 1945 General Election, denoted ‘n’ after the date.

  • Post-Election Coalition-Building in a Comparative Politics Classroom
    Post-Election Coalition-Building in a Comparative Politics Classroom Adam E. Howe Fairfield University Working Paper Abstract Embedded in a unit on legislative institutions in an Introduction to Comparative politics course, students work through the process of post-election coalition-building, a frequent occurrence in parliamentary democracies. The activity is based on politics in the UK and operates under the following conditions: an election has been held and no clear winning party has emerged. In order to avoid a vote of no confidence, or the dissolution of the legislature, workable governing coalitions must be formed. Students have an entire class session (1 hour 15 minutes) to form coalitions that will be cohesive enough to withstand pressures from competing elites and the public. The purpose of this activity is to enhance student understanding of parliamentary electoral systems while also gaining a more detailed understanding of parties and institutional rules in parliamentary democracies. Most importantly, this simulation strives to foster student understanding of the complexities inherent to strategic bargaining, thus demonstrating how both formal and informal institutions structure the behavior of elites. The normative goal is to have students gain a greater appreciation for the complexity of political decision-making without resorting to easy cynicism over the perceived failures of “do nothing politicians”. 1 Introduction The following paper investigates and evaluates the value of coalition-building exercises as a pedagogical tool in comparative politics courses. At the heart of this project, is a desire to more effectively gauge short-term and long-term student learning outcomes. The first pertains to comprehension of course material and integration of prior classroom learning into the coalition- building exercise.

    BACKGOUND Here is a summary of the questions I have asked about the redevelopment of Fairfield Halls over the last 3 years – a project being managed by Brick by Brick. My notes of the questions and answers from each meeting are below. Meeting Date Question subject Answer 1 Council February 2020 Fairfield Halls overspend No 2 Cabinet February 2020 Fairfield Halls overspend Said they would get back to me. Didn’t get back to me. 3 Written Question February 2020 Brick by Brick cost of the work on No Fairfield Halls 4 Scrutiny February 2020 Source of Fairfield Halls development Partially funding 5 Council December 2019 Poor reviews following Fairfield Halls No reopening when the work was unfinished 6 Scrutiny December 2019 Council funding for Fairfield Halls No redevelopment 7 Council October 2019 Fairfield Halls overspend 3 weeks later 8 Council March 2019 Fairfield Halls overspend No 9 Scrutiny November 2018 Delay in Fairfield Halls project. No Cllr Ward asked about financial contingencies for the Fairfield project Extract from a speech in the February 2020 Council meeting: The Council seems to have lost control over the Fairfield Halls budget. Somewhere in the Brick By Brick black hole, even more millions have been spent on a project that looks like the overall cost will double to £60m. So where does the unexpected spend of £2,185,000 fit in? Is this in addition to the £60m spend. How many more additional costs are we going to see? Question at the February 2020 Cabinet meeting Secondly, In Appendix 2 on Page 142 in the Capital budget, Can you explain the line about Fairfield Halls which shows an original budget of £0 but the 2019/20 outturn forecast is £2.185m? What is this for? Answer - Will get back to me.
