later expelled by the Labour Party because of his close links to an
extremist Muslim group, the Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE), based at the
radical East London Mosque. In 2011 controversial sale of Poplar Town Hall to Dreamstar Ltd in 2011 was sealed in here with murky agreement under the table and shortly after Balfron Tower went under the hammer.All tenants have been re-housed, physically and psychologically, Poplar
