12/05/2022 - The Planning Application Committee meeting on Tuesday 26th of April 2022 was as many other meetings in appearance. However, seen a few weeks later, it was very special in several aspects. First of all, the councillors had to decide the second amendment of the Peabody redevelopment in St Johns Hill. All Tory Councillors voted in favour, and all Labour Councillors (but one!) voted against. But it was also for most of them a farewell to the Council decisions in their role of councillors. For the last Planning Application Committee (PAC) meeting before the local election, the most important item of Collapse

27/06/2022 - 22 London bus routes could be axed as Transport for London (TfL) has announced the biggest set of cuts in decades.

15/05/2022 - After 44 years of control by the Conservatives party, Labour has won a majority of councillors in the local elections on 5th May 2022. What was largely expected happened on May 5th: Labour won an overall control of Wandsworth Council, after 44 years in opposition. The “favourite council” of Margaret Thatcher turned red as the election results were declared last week: with 35 Labour Councillors and 22 Conservatives, it was not at all the tight result predicted the week before by Simon Hogg, the new leader of the Council.
