Local Liberal Democrats have raised serious concerns over Labour Council bosses' attempts to sneak through last minute and risky cuts to services for the most medically vulnerable children in the borough.
Last night, Labour councillors voted down plans to help over 20,000 Merton households claim £71 million in unclaimed benefits and support. At the same meeting, Labour pushed through hundreds of above-inflation fee rises.
Residents across Merton are set to lose public access to both of their police stations at the end of the month, under plans signed off by Sadiq Khan.
Raynes Park Liberal Democrats score huge win in long-running fight to make Raynes Park station fully accessible. After successfully campaigning for step-free access at Motspur Park station, they are determined to repeat that success.
Decisions on how Merton Council’s new Legacy Fund Advisory Board will allocate £15 million of public money will be made behind closed doors, after Labour councillors blocked plans for transparency.
Labour repeatedly failed to defend Wimbledon police station during key consultations. Merton is about to be left with no police front counters after the local Labour leadership took no action until closures were already decided.
