We recognise that true national renewal must begin in our communities.
We know that politics and decision-making should be driven by communities themselves, shaped from the ground up.
This new era of community empowerment is essential to building a more Community Britain.

Rowenna Davis is right. Jason Perry’s project has failed
He has attempted to balance the books with huge council tax hikes, massive cuts and fire sales of our community assets and still come up short
There can be no alternative now he must stand down and allow others to do the job that he cannot.

Residents in Croydon have waited months to learn what the Mayor is actually proposing to do in his review of the youth engagement team. Scrutiny is on Tuesday & the paperwork still hasn't been shared with the councillors on that committee.
What's he trying to hide?

I'm walking home from choir rehearsals and I see "binmaggedon" may not be so bad in the Croydon town centre as bad as other parts, but it's still rubbish, not worth the council tax we pay. Along with other council services, parks libraries etc...we need a fresh start next year.
