I’ve been working with the Neat Streets team in Wimbledon, who are a group of residents wishing to do their bit to keep our area clean.

They have arranged a community clean up session on Saturday 2nd March, starting at 10.30am from outside the YMCA, Wimbledon Broadway, SW19 1RY.

I have always argued that a Hard Brexit and no deal are not acceptable outcomes from the Brexit process.

This statement was published before the vote due on Tuesday 11th December was postponed and remains relevant for the vote on Tuesday 15th January.

Parliament is due to vote on the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement and Political Declaration on Tuesday 11th December.

UPDATE: The Department of Transport has announced funding to make railway stations more accessible and Network Rail have asked for nominations from MPs for stations to benefit from this.

Transport for London are consulting on options for a new transport link between Merton and Sutton, called the Sutton Link. There are three proposed route options:

Route Option 1 - South Wimbledon to Sutton town centre

Route Option 2 - Colliers Wood to Sutton town centre

The loss of train service this morning affecting Motspur Park, Raynes Park and Wimbledon is outrageous.

I  asked for an immediate explanation and received the below response from the managing director of Network Rail’s Wessex route and the managing director of South Western Railway.

Macmillan’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning is a fantastic annual fixture in the parliamentary calendar, and I was pleased to show my support at the event.

Update 16th November 2018

Network Rail conducted an asbestos survey and unfortunately asbestos containing material was found in the roof space. This needs to be removed before the repairs are carried out.

Work is being arranged to remove this material and fix the ceiling.

I have received the below update from SGN regarding their gas works on Grand Drive.

Our project is progressing well and we've re-laid over 1200m of pipe and replaced more than 70 gas services connecting Grand Drive properties to the main to date.

I have had many emails, calls and letters from residents who are having problems with the Labour Council's new bin collection arrangements.
