    The Labour Party WHO’S WHO in the EAST

    The Labour Party WHO’S WHO IN THE EAST NOT AN OFFICIAL LABOUR PARTY DOCUMENT Stephen Thomas| 12th April 20 0 https://socialistandtradeunionism.org/ Forward The first steps into socialist politics can be a minefield. Like many organisations the membership has different views but has one socialist theme on how we should represent the people, take the Party forward and lead the Country. We have recently lost yet another General Election. Labour’s, some would say, knee jerk reaction, has led to a swing to the right after several years to the socialist left under Jeremy Corbyn. Whichever way you look at it, it is the members of the party that choose the policies and it is the Leaders responsibility to deliver on them. The choice of the leader is how to implement them and ignite the country so once again they too can believe in our socialist values. At the time of writing, the world is going through a Pandemic, with tens of thousands of people dying. The Conservative Party is in power with a massive majority and are at their most popular, mainly through implementing Labour’s socialist policies. Now collectively known as frontline staff, the country has come to recognize the worth and value of our NHS, careers and cleaning staff. Political theories have entwined with each other and some would fear it has now become more difficult to distinguish between the political Parties. Once the survivors return to a normal way of life, where we can once again visit our family and friends, go to work, walk in the countryside and visit the seaside, then please don’t let the country return to the old Conservative ways of doing things.

The strategy is illustrated with artwork by young people brought together by SNAP, a local voluntary organisation. The pictures show their ideas of Luton in 2026. 32 1 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Luton’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008 - 2026 Foreword Notes By Councillor Hazel Simmons, Chair of the Luton Forum. Welcome to the Luton Forum’s Sustainable Community Strategy 2008-2026. The Luton Forum is a partnership of statutory and mainstream agencies, the voluntary and community sector, and business representatives. We are committed to working together to make Luton a better place to be – both now and by 2026. That may seem an odd fgure but it’s 18 years. We chose it because we wanted our strategy to paint a picture of what Luton will be like when someone born today enters adulthood – what life chances would we like them to have? What opportunities do we want to create for them over the next 18 years? But this strategy is not only focused on young people – we want Luton to be a town where all residents, regardless of age, enjoy a good quality of life.

    Integrated Youth Support Service (IYSS) – North Area Update

    AGENDA ITEM 11 Integrated Youth Support (IYS) – North Neighbourhood update The IYS team in the north area of Luton has worked with a number of young people across the area both within youth centres and in schools. Our work involves informal education opportunities organised by youth workers and information, advice & guidance by personal advisors. Below is a brief outline of just some of our youth projects that have taken place recently and some forthcoming events: Connect Arts 2009 The youth centres involved in the connect arts 2009 took part in the youth showcase event at the Hat Factory. Groups of young people attending our youth centres were involved in African dance & drumming, street dance, St.Georges day dragon modelling and stage set design. The event was attended by friends & families and gave young people a public performance experience. Our groups for disabled young people also performed at the event and had a great time. Devon Residential The north area ‘young voice’ group attended a four-day residential to Devon during the Easter holidays and took part in a wide variety of outdoor activities that were both challenging and adventurous. The 16 young people aged 13- 18yrs were involved in team activities and group work and will now form the area group for young people having a voice and influencing local youth provisions. Boom Bus The mobile youth bus provision has been a regular feature on a Friday night in the Runfold area as an identified hot spot. Youth workers are engaging with 13-17yr olds who are not accessing current youth provision and this has proved a success with young people/parents.

  • November 2020

    November 2020

    November 2020 Aley Green Pepperstock Slip End Woodside Greetings to all our readers. Firstly, my thanks to Editors’ Notes Matt for producing such an excellent magazine last month. It was good to be able to sit back and let someone else take over. I am sure you will all agree he did a great job. The Committee welcomes him to the Team! Since I last edited an issue of the magazine, the weather seems to have changed. We had many walks and days out on dry (sometimes warm and sunny) days over the past few months but suddenly things have changed, We welcomed Autumn with several days of pouring rain! My husband collects weather data and commented that in 2 or 3 days in early October we had significantly more rain than in the whole of September! In fact it measured over 90mm then and it has continued to be wet since! You will see that the Parish Council is reminding Central Beds Council that we have issues with flooding around the Parish. Maybe the puddles will recede one day! (see photo of me, contemplating the “river” on the road near Woodside, plus others opposite—care should be taken driving in water!) Our diary pages are still significantly empty. Many people are still resorting to technology to continue their business, Church services, fitness regimes or other clubs and groups, I know some Scouting groups have been using Zoom and social media. Clubs have met online or put pictures on facebook. The Book club keep in contact via WhatsApp and have had a few socially distanced outdoor meetings.
