Petition More government action to help Newham out of poverty
More details
Newham has the highest rate of unemployment in London. It also has high rates of ill health and premature death. 30% of its LSOAs are in the 10% most deprived in the country.
I would like to see the government take the necessary steps in pushing more funds to assist the Borough in rising above the poverty line. I would also like to see the government auditing teams monitor the spending, ensuring the money is spent in accordance to the develpment of the borough.
