Stop the take over of Howe Barracks by the London Borough of Redbridge

Closed 3,116 signatures

What the petition asks

Over 200 families from the London Borough are set to move into the 208 homes that now sit in the Howe Barracks in Canterbury.

Currently there are over 2,500 people on the Canterbury City Council Housing Register and surely these houses should be offered to them?
Let's get this discussed in Parliment as our local houses should be available to local people who need them the most.
