My heart goes out Beckton’s lead community councillor, Ayesha Chowdhury. Her beloved white Porsche was stolen from her driveway last night.
The Twitter announcement attracted two ‘likes’ before being deleted. Such cruelty. Who celebrates a Labour councillor in one of London’s poorest boroughs being deprived of their high-powered luxury German sports car?
And this is not the first piece of ill-fortune to have befallen her. In 2011 she had to move out of her housing association property when the national media focused its attention on her buy-to-let portfolio in Newham, then valued at over a million pounds.
Happily for her, the soaraway London property market has since inflated her wealth to over £4 million, with an estimated monthly rental value of close to £19,000.
So if the Porsche doesn’t come back she can probably afford a new one.

Councillor Chowdhury illegally parked said white Porsche in my private residents car park a few weeks ago. Guess if I report it now the new “owner” will get the ticket 😝
