📢 My High Street Gambling Reform debate takes place on Thursday afternoon. Councils & communities must have power to say no to new gambling establishments. ✉️ Ask your MP to attend 💻 Watch on parliamentlive.tv I’ll be calling to end ‘Aim to Permit’.

I am very proud to back @dawnbutlerbrent.bsky.social campaign to end the 'Aim to Permit' principle for the licensing of gambling. #Hillingdon

Labour MP Karl Turner is organising a backbench open letter to government in protest against "idiotic" jury reforms Ex-deputy PM Angela Rayner isn't expected to sign it. However, she believes government has questions to answer about the reforms, PolHome understands, reports @zoecrowther.bsky.social

The annual Christmas Market at Southlands Arts Centre is always a pleasure to attend. Delicious food and interesting crafts on sale. Bought a few Christmas gifts and enjoyed the festive atmosphere. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

It was great working with residents and volunteers today, planting trees with @treesforcities.bsky.social in Sipson Meadow. #Hillingdon

Today on Remembrance Sunday, we honour the courage and sacrifice of those who have served in our Armed Forces. Their service and dedication will never be forgotten. 🌹 #LestWeForget

In response to contact from residents and my own regular reporting, it was great to be out in #WestDrayton this morning with officers from Hillingdon Council, speaking with, and delivering letters to residents, to tackle the #flytipping scourge on the Wise Lane Estate. #Hillingdon

I am very pleased that the Met Police have listened to me & other #Hillingdon residents and thought again about closing Hayes police station's front counter. It's unacceptable that under the previous proposal, NW London would be without a counter service. news.met.police.uk/news/met-pol...

I'm really pleased to see this Harmondsworth Road footpath finally resurfaced complete with an added pedestrian dropped kerb. I've been pursuing this since summer 2023. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

I am very pleased that work has been carried out by Hillingdon Council to improve the area south of Verbena Close to reduce anti-social behaviour and large fly-tipping events. I've been calling for this for more than 18 months. #Hillingdon #WestDrayton

Owners of the Dragon House Chinese takeaway in York were devastated after their business was vandalised with racist graffiti. When local business Crystal Clean York heard they immediately stepped in to scrub off the graffiti for free.

UK weather: Warmest August bank holiday Monday on record in Wales and Northern Ireland

Delayed my weekly ward round to Bank Holiday Monday. Along with the heavy fly-tipping throughout the ward, I've reported the ongoing increase of dumped #greenwaste too. #Hillingdon #WestDrayton #Flytipping

Ministers lining up administrators for Thames Water shows Thatcher’s terrible legacy. It’s sinking without a trace under a deluge of debt. All as inflated customer bills have plumped up profits for shareholders. This is proof: private companies shouldn’t be near water.

The Southlands Arts Centre Summer Exhibition opened on the weekend. Go along to see the talent of local artists, which continues to impress. Free entry and free parking. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon #Art

This week's sample of dumped green waste. #Hillingdon #WestDrayton #GreenWaste #FlyTipping

A new week, and more green waste dumped on our streets. #Hillingdon #GreenWaste #WestDrayton #FlyTipping

This week's collage of dumped green waste. #GreenWaste #Hillingdon #FlyTipping

A selection of the dumped/abandoned green waste I found as part of yesterday's ward round. All reported to Hillingdon Council. #FlyTipping #Hillingdon #WestDrayton

I do hope this is not a glimpse of things to come. #Hillingdon #GreenWaste #WestDrayton #Flytipping

As part of the Met Police's focus on neighbourhood policing, they have launched "Met Engage". A new way for Londoners to receive updates directly from local officers via a new website. Sign up here: www.metengage.co.uk #MetEngage #London #Hillingdon

Six water companies will be banned from paying out bonuses to the most senior executives this year as punishment for sewage pollution and inadequate customer service https://trib.al/AaTT92t

We are living through a moment of extraordinary change – one that future generations will look back on as either the moment we transformed our energy system, or chose not to. Our new report with @lcef.bsky.social says it clearly: now is the time for community power, in every sense of the word.

It was great to attend the St Martin's Church summer fête yesterday. I took the opportunity to climb the church tower and see the gorgeous views from the top. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

Early morning ward round. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

Yesterday, it was great to see the daffodils local residents and I planted, blooming again for a second year. Looking great in the #Spring sunshine. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

I am very pleased to finally see the redevelopment of the ball court adjacent to The Brambles playground in West Drayton. It is one of the first things I pursued after being elected for the ward in May 2022. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

I remain opposed to a new runway at Heathrow airport because of the severe impact it will have on noise, air pollution and meeting our climate change targets.

An early ward round today to avoid the worst of the rain this afternoon. Casework picked up for Hillingdon Council to address. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

🔴Damning Report Exposes the Sheer Scale of Britain’s Crumbling Public Sector Left by the Conservatives It blows a hole in the party’s claim to have ‘fixed the roof while the sun is shining’ bylinetimes.com/2025/01/22/d...

This care worker was BITTEN by a patient - and almost lost her finger. But because she was on a zero-hours contract, she didn't get sick pay.

🚨Labour Government CONFIRMS the delivery of the new Hillingdon Hospital🚨 After years of the Conservatives, nationally and locally, misleading residents - this Government has awarded over £1 billion to deliver our new state-of-the-art hospital. My statement below 🏥👇

After meeting some residents to discuss some ASB issues, I did a late afternoon ward round. #WestDrayton #Hillingdon

London is officially the world’s No.1 destination for 2025. From our unrivalled cultural attractions and world-class food scene to a sports calendar like no other—there’s nowhere like London. I’m delighted that Tripadvisor agrees that London is the top destination in the world.

The Severe Weather Emergency Protocol (SWEP) has been reactivated to protect those sleeping rough during freezing temperatures. Warmth and shelter can save lives—if you see someone who needs help, connect them to support through StreetLink. #BeTheLink thestreetlink.org.uk

This is not what a litter bin is for. #Hillingdon
