Community Spirit is alive and well in Friern Barnet

This afternoon has yet again shown me why Barnet is such a great place to live. A community that cares and stands together is a tremendous asset that should be treasured and supported. 

Outside Friern Barnet Library this afternoon, the community were out in force. They show that in spite of what Barnet Council has done to devalue the community by closing the library, they are continuing to provide a friendly environment for the community to come together. You would have to pay consultants hundreds of thousands of pound to come up with a community cohesion strategy that the Save Friern Barnet Library group are delivering free of charge. 

Barnet Council should embrace this group and identify how they can work together. Instead they are just rude to them.This group deserves the support of every member of the community and they definitely have mine! Keep it up.
