BBC Radio interview with my Labour opponent

Slightly unusual to be interviewed alongside an old London Bus, but Clive and I exchanged banter about our respective suits, our shared middle name and plans to have a lie in once the campaign is over.  All very civilised, all things considered!

Official opening of the Butterfly Park at The Tarn

The official opening of the butterfly park at the Tarn was an opportunity to meet up with some old friends and to meet new ones.  It was also a splendid opportunity to see the great work undertaken by so many volunteers, including local Conservative Party activists.  I was also pleased to see some wild fowl on the lake after the terrible tragedy of last year.

A sign of things to come?

This very prominent poster site on a major intersection close to both the Conservative and Labour campaign centres seems to have collapsed over the weekend.  Could it be a sign of things to come later this week?

Meeting Friends of Avery Hill Park

Friends of Avery Hill Park continue to protest about the poor treatment of the current cafe operator, who is being forced out and put on the dole by Greenwich Council.  Despite his dedication to the users of the park, providing a friendly service every day of the year except Christmas Day, no matter what the weather, he has been treated terribly.  

Campaigning with Shadow Secretary of State for Transport in Eltham

The Shadow Secretary of State for Transport, Theresa Villiers, joined me and my team visiting residents in Eltham West ward this afternoon.  Among the many issues raised was the subject of uncontrolled immigration, and cuts to local NHS services.

Lunch at Tudor Barn

Ahead of the visit of Theresa Villiers, the Shadow Secretary of State for Transport, some of my team joined me for a strategy lunch at the Tudor Barn in Eltham.

Shadow Cabinet Minister Francis Maude campaigning in Shooters Hill

I was delighted to welcome yet another senior Conservative figure to the constituency.  This time it was Francis Maude, who spent time talking to residents about a range of issues including local NHS cuts, school standards, immigration and pensions.

Hustings at the Slade Evangelical Church, Plumstead

The second hustings of the campaign was at the Slade Evangelical Church in Plumstead.  The questions from a very large audience were mainly centered around ethical, moral and Christian concerns.  I must pay credit to both Clive and Steven Toole, the candidates from Labour and Liberal Democrat parties, for a very civilised occasion and to the many people who kindly gave up their evening after the Service.  Thanks to the Minister of the Slade Evangelical Church for kindly hosting the occasion.
