As I prepare to attend Croydon’s remembrance commemoration this morning, I’ll also be thinking of my great grandfather Alfred J Foreman, a sugar refiner from Battersea.

Long may his memory - and all those who served - persist.

[Stuart King @Stuart_King]

Today, we pause to remember and honour everyone who has served our country, and especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

We reflect on their courage, dedication and the lasting legacy of their service.

We will remember them.

Tory Exec Mayor Perry thinks there’s no need for publicly available targets in his Business Plan.
How can residents who directly elected him be able to hold him directly to account 🤔

🌹Croydon Labour voted against the Mayor’s Business Plan at last Full Council, here’s why 🎦 ⬇️

[Croydon Labour @CroydonLabour]

At last Full Council, we voted against Mayor Perry’s Business Plan.
The Tory Mayor’s plan doesn’t include any targets or milestones.
His reason? Residents need simple documents 🤔 All style. No substance!
Hear Cllr Bowell, explain why we voted the Mayor’s Business Plan down 🎦 ⬇️

The Conservative Executive Mayor’s proposals to change how and what developers are charged (Community Infrastructyre Levy - CIL) when investing in our borough, carry risks for the future of our town centre.

Why? Watch the statement👇🏽by Cllr King, Leader Croydon Labour Group

[Ben Taylor @BenJLTaylor]

@MarioCreatura @CroydonLabour @Stuart_King @thomasbowell You’re so right Mario, though in the 100 day plan the Conservative Mayor did say that he would have achieved these deliverables by day 70.

@JasonForCroydon Everyone at @CroydonLabour is saddened to hear of the passing of former Coulsdon councillor, Chris Wright.

He was motivated by the very best of intentions and had a strong record of achievement in his ward when he retired. We extend our condolences to his family & friends. RIP.

Congratulations to Fr Martin McCarthy of St Gertrude’s church in South Croydon, on the occasion of the 45th anniversary of his ordination as a Priest.

He has offered his parish in South Croydon love and faith.

Good to be back on the doorstep, this time is Streatham helping Jade Albas, @UKLabour candidate in the forthcoming by election.

A really impressive local candidate.

[Stuart King @Stuart_King]

@elliesandover_ Great work Ellie. You and the Bensham Manor team are doing a great job.

[Rowenna Davis @RowennaDavis]

How do I vote? 🗳️

[Ben Taylor @BenJLTaylor]

We could have a Mayor that fights for Croydon.

We could have a Mayor that doesn’t roll over, throw their hands up and admit defeat instantly.

We could have @RowennaDavis

But we don’t. Not yet.

Vote for change on 7th May.

Let’s give Croydon hope again.

[Stuart King @Stuart_King]

@RowennaDavis Great to see such a positive programme for our town! 💪

[Stuart King @Stuart_King]

£20m!!!

This is fabulous news and a great example of the Labour government delivering for people in West Thornton.

I’m excited to support @LabourSJ and help ensure this money reaches the people most in need in West Thornton. It can and will be a game changer.

[Sarah Jones MP @LabourSJ]
