"Bexley Borough used to be one of the best in London for keeping streets clean, but many residents complain of litter on local streets and dog mess on pavements."

"Many local people have raised the issue of the Tesco and Coop stores in Welling closing this winter. As the former Lib Dem spokesperson for Local Economy on Bromley Council, I fought for shopping centres like Welling to get a fair deal from the council."
