Sutton Council will be recommending to strengthen its leadership team with the addition of a second Deputy Leader at no extra cost to the taxpayer at its annual Full Council meeting on 18th May.

Our priority at this difficult time is to do whatever we can to support the national effort to suppress the COVID19 pandemic. We support residents in their resolve to stay home, protect our NHS, and save lives.

We have been informed by TfL that the Go Sutton bus trial will end this Friday.

These are challenging times. But Sutton is still a caring community and a great place to live, work and raise a family. Through us all working together, this will remain the case. Please make use of the resources below.

Conservative and Independent councillors have opposed plans by Liberal Democrat-run Sutton Council to invest millions of pounds in support for vulnerable and elderly people, new council homes and mental health services. The plans were unveiled at the Council's annual Budget meeting on Monday 2nd March, and the budget was passed unanimously by all the Lib Dem councillors.

Residents in Hackbridge have accused the new Conservative MP for Carshalton & Wallington of backtracking over a controversial parking survey he sent to residents in new developments in the area.

A judicial review against the Government's expansion of Heathrow, led by the Mayor and London boroughs, has been successful in the Court of Appeal.

The Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government has decided to ‘recover’ the appeal for the Rosehill school – that is he has decided to make the decision on the appeal himself. 

My observations on the presentation and the ERF visit that I organised with the new Tory MP in Carshalton and Wallington.

Liberal Democrat campaigners and councillors in Sutton have called on local residents to sign a pledge to protect services at St Helier Hospital.
