I'm a councillor in the London Borough of Wandsworth; this blog mainly covers that, sometimes general politics and policy and occasionally anything else that takes my fancy.

Calling it a day
It’s clear to anyone who notices the small date on the posts in this blog that it is a defunct blog. One of those sad sites that was once updated, perhaps even loved, but now sits neglected and ignored by its owner. It catches readers from Google and other sites that link to it, but

A new look for the site
Been slightly geekish I’ve been tinkering with the site for a few weeks and giving it a general freshen up. Today I accidentally launched it. In much the same way as you accidentally clean a fridge. You start doing a few bits and pieces, then you realise that you’ve got to go through with it.

Wandsworth Council is now twittering
Twittering is a form of microblogging which, along with this blog, I started as a bit of an experiment.

Merry Christmas
The news might not always have been the cheeriest, but I hope that wherever you are and whatever you are doing you have a very merry Christmas.
