The Sydenham and Forest Hill Societies are holding hustings for local councillor elections, April 22, at Sydenham High School, in the evening, precise time to be decided. The rules we have set are that any party with candidates in one of the three wards of Sydenham, Forest Hill and Perry Vale can nominate one of these to be on the platform to answer questions, with me in the chair. So far acceptances have been received from Labour, Conservatives, Lib Dems and Greens.

I'll be chairing, and I'll be watching both this Forum and Sydenham Town Forum, and will try to make sure that the burning local questions get asked on the evening.
