I'm extremely grateful to everyone who gave me their vote in Mitcham and Morden 💚 A move from 5th place in 2019 to 3rd place in 2024 reveals a growing appetite for Green values and policies! I promise to continue to work hard for our community and to hold Labour to account.

Labour MP for Mitcham & Morden, @Siobhain_Mc , has said in the past that she doesn't support electoral reform because it'd weaken the link between an MP & their constituency. I've seen no indication that she's changed her mind. I think that the status quo is convenient for her!

Woke up feeling rather down, so took myself off to the Wandle Trail to let nature work its magic. I was rewarded! When I stopped to watch a heron at the water's edge, I saw a little egret plodding in another part of the river, and then two more little egrets flew overhead!

One of my top priorities, should I be elected, is housing. 1000s of people in Mitcham and Morden are stuck in temporary accommodation or unsuitable accommodation, or can't afford to move out of the family home, or are struggling to pay their rent, mortgage or service charges. 1/

Residents of Southfields, who've opposed the AELTC expansion at Wimbledon Park, had banners removed from private property again today. This attempted theft is becoming a habit, but we won’t be silenced! Sign the petition (comments) #Wimbledon #FreeSpeech @seaningle @carolvorders

All hostages need to be released and the collective punishment of the Palestinian people needs to stop. Some question the point of marches, but I think that it'd be strange - sinister, even - if people didn't come together to register their strength of feeling about wrongdoing.

Belgrave Walk was not so bad, so we focused on Phipps Bridge public path, which was in a terrible state. Discarded cans were the most common form of litter and none of us can fathom why the perpetrators didn't use public bins or take the cans home to put in their recycling box.

🧵It'd be premature to state my priorities if elected as the London Assembly Member for Merton & Wandsworth, as my remit would depend to a large extent upon what constituents brought to me & which committees I sat on. However, I'm especially keen to focus upon the following.

No fewer than 16 Mertonians picked litter along the Wandle Trail today. I was amazed! People just kept turning up! Huge thanks to all who took the time to come along 💚. We ended up with 18 bags, two chairs and a scaffolding pole. Plus we've reported two fly-tips. @MertonGreens

This extract from the Merton Labour leaflet in #StHelierWard has me wondering why fly-tips that I report usually end up in that 4% which aren't cleared within 24 hours. Is it just my bad luck or is anyone else feeling the same way?

Here's a leaflet that a group of local residents, including myself, are delivering to homes surrounding Morden Park. We believe that the park is not a suitable venue for Eastern Electrics festivals and urge those who feel the same to speak out.
