Last night's #MerantunDevelopmentLtd 🌟SPECIAL MEETING🌟 where Director & Leader of Council (Former Cabinet Member for Finance) show how they are in the WRONG job.

"probably about 2 months ago by the Public Works Loan Board"

"Just at the point we were hoping maybe to borrow"
No representation at the meeting form the main parties @MertonTories @MertonLibDems, left to Merton Park Independent Cllr Peter Southgate to speak up about the "5 or 6-minute" quarterly meetings.

Normally less, & always filled with repeated, scripted praise for the biz model.
Here is one of the short meetings 14 months ago NOT 2 months as suggested yesterday, where the SAME Director brings up the PWLB rate rise BEFORE submitting plans for planning permission, with the Cabinet Member for Finance (now Leader) present.

So insignificant, not in minutes.
Volunteers have been filming these meetings for @MertonTV for over 2½ years, sitting through hundreds of hours meetings to have an ACCURATE record of the meetings, to highlight failures like this.
