  • Councillors

Paul lives in North Marylebone and brings a wealth of real-world experience to the City Council as the CEO of a central London software company. Having lived in the St John’s Wood and Marylebone area since 2015, Paul has served as a dedicated local councillor since 2018. As Leader of the Conservative Group, he now brings that same tireless work ethic and tech-sector precision to the task of holding the administration to account and offering a clear, ambitious vision for our City’s future.

Throughout his time on the Council, Paul has been the driving force behind the St John’s Wood High Street project, championing a balance between a thriving retail economy and the needs of local residents. He is a passionate advocate for Westminster, ensuring our neighbourhoods remain global hubs for business while protecting the unique character of the communities that call them home.

"This is about more than just politics; it’s about service," says Paul. "I have seen firsthand how effective local leadership can transform a street or a neighbourhood. My commitment to Westminster is absolute: I want a City that prioritises the basics, safe streets, clean city and fiscal responsibility - while embracing the innovation needed to keep us the best place in the world to live and work."
