Dance Westminster

Dance Westminster

One of your local councillors, Cllr Iain Bott, second from the right arranged a special event to celebrate those with disabilities in the City of Westminster.

The event was called 'Dance Westminster', and saw three auditions across the city where 10 hopefuls were shortlisted and took part in the grand final in January.

Judges included Wayne Sleep OBE, Paralypic athlete Mel Nicholls, and actor and dancer Francesca Mills. There was not a dry eye in the house. We are hoping this becomes an annual event.

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.
