2/2 While we want to improve bus services, we believe these proposals will harm local residents & businesses without tackling the real traffic issues. We’re urging TfL to review our previous suggestions to properly address congestion

1/2 Together with local ward Cllrs, Chair of @SuttonCouncil's Environment & Sustainable Transport Committee & MP @Bobby_Dean I've written to TfL to express our disappointment at their failure to engage with us before launching the Carshalton High St bus priority consultation

2/2 The new formula is flawed and doesn't account for London's high housing costs, underestimating the need in our communities.
@suttoncouncil is urging the government to rethink these damaging proposals & work with us to protect our children's futures

1/2 Deeply concerned by the latest @London_Councils report on children's services funding.
The government's proposed reforms could see London's funding cut by £1.5bn - having a detrimental impact on Sutton's vital services

Great to see the hard work of our local GPs praised in a recent @HW_Sutton report. The report also shows 1 in 4 people still struggle to contact their practice.
I've joined @Bobby_Dean & @LukeTaylorLD to ask the local NHS how we can improve access to GP’s

The social care system is struggling. Despite councils' best efforts, a decade of underfunding, soaring demand, and rising costs are forcing many to increase council tax and make difficult service cuts.

While the #spendingReview attempts to deal with some of the most pressing issues, all councils, including Sutton, will remain under severe financial pressure.

Underwhelmed by the Government’s Spending review.
@SuttonCouncil is helping to drive London’s growth with the £1 billion Cancer Hub investment and further investment in homes and high street regeneration. We’ll continue to stand up for Sutton and build a successful future.
