@NeilGarratt 6/7.Let’s be clear:.🟦 Sutton Conservatives stood up for Sutton’s Green Belt. 🟨 The Lib Dems voted against it — and admitted they’ll give some of it away. 🎭 Now they’re trying to rewrite the story.

@NeilGarratt 5/7.Then, moments later after the vote, Lib Dem MP Luke Taylor rushed online to claim the Lib Dems had “stopped a Green Belt building disaster”. There was no such proposal. No threat. Just spin.

@NeilGarratt 4/7.And in a remarkable admission, new Lib Dem councillor Lisa Webster admitted on the record that some Green Belt land will have to be given up to Mayor Khan. So much for protecting local green spaces in Carshalton South & Clockhouse.

Councillors and MPs are elected to work for you—not to stage party set pieces. Sutton deserves leaders who show up where it matters and do the job they’re paid to do. #SuttonCouncil #GPAccess #LocalPolitics #DoYourJob (6/6).
