Campaigning for @LiamConlon2 MP & our local Councillors in Beckenham and Penge š¹
Beckenham and Penge
Joined May 2012
It was a real pleasure to celebrate the completion of the first of 275 new homes at Calverley Close in Beckenham. These 20 houses, delivered by @RiversideHO and Vistry, are at social rent levels and part-funded by @MayorofLondon following a ballot of existing estate residents.

Joined the Special Operations Response Team from @Ldn_Ambulance in Beckenham today as they trained to respond to major incidents in London. And popped in to see Winny, a good friend and true Penge legend at SE20 Cycles - a fantastic local independent business!

Nigel Farageās plan would affect thousands of families in Beckenham and Penge: our friends, our neighbours, our colleagues. NHS staff, teachers, local business owners. This policy and the rhetoric that comes with it does not represent who we are. My statement to constituents ā¬ļø

āWelfare for British citizens onlyā shows ignorance of difference between ILR, Common Travel Area, Citizenship. Would also cut off millions who provide welfare for British citizens, inc Irish & staff from around the world working in the NHS. This is not who we are as a country.
Another thing I haven't seen mentioned. Farage was very specific on his policy. "Welfare will be for British citizens only". "We must prioritise UK citizens". So what is the direction of Reform policy towards the large number of Irish citizens living and working in the UK.

Politicians talking down London do so because they canāt stand what London represents. London is a success story. An economic powerhouse where transport is improving, crime is falling, creative industries thriving. People move here because itās the greatest city in the world.
Londonās story is one of resilience, success and optimism - not decline as fearmongers portray. From cleaner air to better transport, vibrant culture to lower crime - here's some key facts ā¬ļø
