I attended the Assembly’s Holocaust Memorial Day ceremony and heard some incredibly moving testimonies, especially from Steven Frank BEM, a Holocaust survivor who spoke about his harrowing experiences.
We scrutinised the Mayor’s draft Budget on Wednesday; I pushed for more cooperation and co-location between our emergency services. Unfortunately the Conservative Group’s budget motion - condemning the Mayor’s hiking of council tax and plans to impose yet more driving charges - was not passed.
It was good to join Gareth Bacon MP in Bromley for a fascinating housing policy forum event - lots of interesting ideas from local members.
I rounded off the week by joining our fab team in Mortlake & Barnes Common on the campaign trail.
Looking forward to another great week serving our beautiful city!
