8 February (Part 4) - Gareth Going Great Guns!
Below is Bexley Councillor Gareth Bacon making his fine maiden speech to Parliament. Gareth is moving on from being our representative at the GLA,
a position that will shortly lapse, to being Conservative MP for Orpington.
I think he did a good job of
holding Sadiq Khan to account in City Hall and I
suspect it won’t be long before his talents are noticed in Westminster.
There will be a by-election in Longlands ward timed to coincide with the GLA
elections in order to keep the costs down.
