As you might expect from a bloody Tory, though the funds were allocated by the bloody Tories in the first place, firstly through Westminster and then through BoJo in his capacity as Mayor.
It has its origin, however, in a funding programme proposed by the Commissioner's Policy Unit in February 2008 and announced by Ken Livingstone as part of his bid for re-election. It's not a party political issue.

Enfield is fucking terrible at getting anything done so I am not confident that Mini Holland won't just end up like Broomfield House, with dozens of factions arguing amongst themselves over what to do right up until the day that every road in Enfield collapses into a fault line: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broomfield_House
It's not helped by the fact that the MP for Enfield Southgate, David Burrowes, is himself not a proponent of the scheme. As you might expect from a bloody Tory, though the funds were allocated by the bloody Tories in the first place, firstly through Westminster and then through BoJo in his capacity as Mayor. It will be a long, hard road for Enfield, which is partly why the swift movement in Waltham Forest is so important to this area too.
