Cllr Paul Swaddle is calling on Labour-run Westminster Council for more housing for our essential key workers, including teachers, nurses and police officers. If the Conservatives are running the Council after May's elections, Paul commits to protecting and increasing the number of key worker homes

I'm Councillor Tim Barnes. No matter where you live in Westminster, you have the right to hold the Labour-led council accountable.

Got questions about council tax, potholes, or local issues?

Join us at the next Full Council meeting on Wednesday 10 September. Ask a question at www.westm.news/PP

Cllr Paul Swaddle: consultations should not be tick box exercises but time and again, Labour-run Westminster City Council and the Labour Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, have claimed to consult residents, only to push ahead with their plans regardless of what local people tell them

When is a consultation not a consultation? When the views of residents are ignored

This week our Leader Cllr Paul Swaddle has written on the soaring number of mobile phone thefts in Westminster.

The Met Police are trying to fight back despite a budget crunch under Mayor Sadiq Khan and Labour Government. Labour Westminster City Council is failing to use its powers to help.

The NHS shouldn’t be a plaything for left-wing unions. It’s too important.

We’ll ban doctors from striking and take our health service back from the BMA.

Just over a year ago Sadiq Khan promised Londoners that if re-elected he would "put an extra 1,300 neighbourhood Police Officers and PCSOs on [London's] streets". In reality he has presided over massive cuts to Met Police numbers. London's Labour Mayor is letting down Londoners. We deserve better.
