From 2006 to 2010, I was a councillor for Lee Green ward in the London Borough of Lewisham. During that time, I blogged regularly and in 2009 I won the Tim Garden Award for the Best Blog by a Liberal Democrat Holding Public Office. My blog posts from my term of office are archived here in case they prove of use to former constituents, or to those who share my annoyance with faulty street furniture
In early December, world leaders will gather in Denmark for a crucial conference on climate change. Their challenge will be to agree radical measures to tackle global warming. Our challenge is to demand they do so.
That’s why my colleague (and the next MP for Lewisham East!) Pete Pattisson, and thousands of other concerned citizens, will be joining The Wave on December 5th in central London. The Wave is a mass demonstration to show our support for a safe climate future for all. Those taking part will march through London in a wave of blue, and finish by circling Parliament.
Pete’s organising a group of local cyclists to cycle to The Wave, leaving from the Clock Tower in Lewisham Town Centre at 11am on December 5th. It will be a fun, safe and meaningful way to take part. Everyone is welcome, so if you would like to come along, just tell Pete you’re coming by filling in the form at his website.
