More burning wreckage from a crash landing Green election pledge.

Before last year’s election, the line was that the Greens would cancel, within six months, the lease to the evangelical nutters promoting gay conversion therapy at Eagle House in Knowle West and restore it as a youth centre.

A letter from Green leader “Tory” Tony Dyer now announces that there are no legal grounds for cancelling this lease because, presumably, using a council building for unlawful gay conversion therapy activities is fine? Instead, we get the building back when the lease expires in May 2026.

It then will be demolished and the land sold for housing because the evangelical nutters have broken the lease by not doing repairs on the building and letting it fall into disrepair.

Some sort of consultation on some sort of vague community building idea will happen after the demolition but getting anything in place before 2030 seems unlikely.

Great news for young people in Knowle.
