Hanging baskets return to the High Street

Hanging Baskets

Your local Councillors are once again supporting the installation of hanging baskets on the High Street both over the summer and winter periods by funding these from the local ward budget. We hope by bringing a bit of colour to the street this will help in some small way our local shops.

As Cllr Mohindra says ‘we truly value the St John’s Wood High Street as an important asset and I am sure these hanging baskets which we are paying for from the local ward budget will not only be well received but help attract new shoppers’.

Labour is being careless with your money and failing on crime

At Labour’s Westminster City Council budget last week, I made Westminster Labour answer for their reckless spending and weak action on rising crime and declining street standards. Westminster Labour has wasted £27 million on a failed housing contractor, self-awarded senior Labour councillors pay rises of up to 62 per cent and are projected to hike your Council Tax by 75 per cent over the next four years.
