This month’s email has news on Brexit, Wimbledon Police Station, bin collections in Merton and more.

After 8 years as Mayor of London, we Conservatives could be proud of Boris Johnson’s record; we could hold our heads high. London was safer, delivering better value for money, attracting more investment and getting to grips with building more housing. London was the envy of the world!

I recently met with Thameslink to discuss the recent timetable changes and the disruption caused to commuters.

The gas network in the Merton High Street area of South Wimbledon is being upgraded. 

This is part of a £418,000 investment to replace the old gas mains and services with new plastic pipe. 

I welcome today’s High Court judgement on the closure of Wimbledon Police Station as it continues to highlight this important issue and I thank all those involved for their efforts.

Yesterday with a heavy heart I pushed my New Clause 18 to the Trade Bill to a vote. This is a decision I agonised over and took no pleasure in making. My amendment did not pass, but I will continue to represent my constituents by fighting to protect jobs and the economy.

Yesterday I led a debate on post-Brexit customs arrangements. We must ensure we protect jobs and businesses, avoid a hard border in Ireland, and reflect the realities at our ports.

On Sunday 29th July the Ride London Cycle event will be passing through Wimbledon again.

This will mean large parts of Wimbledon Hill Road, Worple Road, Coombe Lane and Wimbledon Village will be effectively closed from 7am-7pm.
