Westminster City Council has been slammed after selling
off 66 flats under the right to buy scheme and failing to replace them with new
homes. According to figures uncovered by Labour councillors in the borough, the
Tory-led local authority has made £16.2 million from the 66 flat sales since
2010. Cllr Paul Dimoldenberg, leader of the Labour Group, said: “The
Conservatives promised that for every council flat sold under the right to buy
a new home would be built to replace each one sold. "That promise has
turned out to be completely worthless and not one single new replacement
council property has been built in Westminster since 2010 despite the council
receiving over £16 million for the 66 flats sold.” Read more on 24dash.
