Shoplifting is up - so why is Sadiq Khan allowing up to 3,300 staff at the Met Police face the axe? @CllrGeorgiou tears apart the Mayor's claims about supporting our police:

At the centre of Newick is the Village Green with its historic buildings, flags and pump built to celebrate Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee. Painted by Richard Field, look out for it hanging in @thebullnewick.

Breaking: Rachel Reeves is going to raise employers' National Insurance by 2% in her anti-growth, business bashing, disaster budget.
Here is Rachel Reeves criticising the Tories for doing the same thing in 2021.
The lies and hypocrisy from this spiteful Labour govt is endless.

🚨 LABOUR MP GETS AGGRESSIVE
Labour MP Mike Amesbury caught in a street altercation in Cheshire, repeatedly saying to a man on the ground: “You won’t ever threaten me again.”
The public remind him he’s a local MP to which he responds: “Yes I am, and you won’t threaten the MP ever again, will you?”
So much for the “changed” Labour Party and “cleaned up” politics.

Labour have been caught planting their own activists into impartial civil service jobs.
They did it because they thought no-one would notice. What else are they hiding?

Fantastic interview with D-Day veteran Richard Todd who played Major John Howard in ‘The Longest Day’. #DDay80
#OnThisDay 1944: Actor Richard Todd took part in Operation Tonga on what is now known as D-Day.
60 years on in 2004, he revisited his landing site in Normandy, returned to Pegasus Bridge and reflected on his experience of war.
Richard Field retweeted
#DDay80: When I visited Normandy for the first time in 1979 with my Dad we met Major John Howard DSO outside the Gondrée Café. By this time 80 years ago he and his men had taken the key bridges and the code words Ham & Jam signalling their capture filled the radio network.

Over the past 2 years, residents in #Wandsworth have seen a continuous decline in fundamental services under the Labour-led council @wandbc. These dangerous potholes in #Balham have been reported several times over the past 8 weeks and still not repaired.

This is significant.
The change in vote share from 2021 Mayoral Election is:
CON 45% (+10)
LAB 38% (-1)
LIB 10% (+5)
Green 7% (-2)
OTH 0 (-12)
5.5% swing from LAB to CON.
If repeated across Greater London, Sadiq Khan would lose to Susan Hall.
London will be a nail biter.

Wandsworth voters have sent a clear message to the new Labour-run Council today: they’re already tired of being ignored by an arrogant, incompetent Council leadership, and they’re coming back to @wandsworth Conservatives
Congrats to Cllr Nick Austin on an exceptional campaign 💙

Productive evening with fellow Trustees of the Benjamin Weir Trust at #wandsworth Town Hall. This group is made up of former mayors and councillors. Benjamin Weir himself was a local politician in the area. @lucymowatt – at Wandsworth, London

🤯
@LimeBikes - these have been dumped on St John’s Hill, Battersea - taking up the entire pavement
This isn’t good enough, and it keeps happening. It’s especially unfair on people who use mobility aids and families with young children
@wandbc needs to take action
