Duncan Borrowman, the Liberal Democrat London Assembly candidate for Bexley & Bromley, spoke at the pilot meeting of the Blackfen Forum on Saturday. He said: "I strongly support the setting up of a forum. Blackfen needs a forum that represents all interested groups - residents, traders, community groups, churches, schools, the police, young people and others.

"It is time Blackfen was put back on the map."
