Regent's Park gate closures a real possiblity

Regent's Park Gates

The Royal Parks are running a consultation on the movement of vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians into and out of their parks including Regent’s Park with the potential outcome being the closure of gates into Regent’s Park. This could result in the displacement of traffic into the streets of NW8 and surrounding area with increase rat running and the subsequent deterioration of air quality. For this reason your local Councillors are running a petition opposing the potential gate closures. 

We would also encourage you to complete a survey on this issue the Royal Parks are running before the closing date of 14th July 2019. The survey can be found at www.royalparks.org.uk/movement or alternatively you can write a response and email it to [email protected]

Have your say, complete the petition and survey today!

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.
