Closure of the Ealing Equality Council
I'm slightly horrified that the closure of this organisation is happening with so little fuss. It's a charity that provides free legal advice to people within the borough and has been doing so for mre than 40 years. The council have taken against it for political reasons, as far as I can tell, and have awarded funding to an organisation that uses civilian (CAB) advice instead and which has absolutely no presence in the borough and knows absolutely nothing about our affairs. I think those of us who don't rely on such services need to be aware of what the council is doing in our name against the rest of us who really do need the EEC to survive. Campaigns with councillors etc have failed largely, I think, because those of us taking the decisions do not need to rely on the service.
