Inside Croydon and local library campaigners, including Elizabeth Ash, have uncovered council documents that prove that the consultation held last year didn't show that residents had an "overwhelming desire" to see their library service privatised, even though that is what the Council has claimed ever since!
“This evidence confirms that the consultation was a sham,” said Elizabeth Ash, a Sanderstead resident and leading figure in the national save libraries network.
“It is absolutely appalling that residents have been duped into believing that Croydon Council is acting on their views. To consult but ignore the comments and ideas offered and then fabricate the findings is a total betrayal of residents’ trust,” Ash said.
