LOCAL RESIDENTS LOSE FAITH IN WANDSWORTH’S TORIES

For many local residents, the Conservatives’ shameful handling of this issue has been a turning point in their opinion of Wandsworth’s ruling party. At no point did the Tory Council choose to consult local people about the proposed closure of the museum. A huge campaign, involving people right across the borough and beyond, was dismissed out of hand. Local residents are tired of being treated with such arrogance by the Conservatives.

The Tories just pushed on ahead with their plans, ignoring the overwhelming cries of support for this much-valued local amenity. They just don’t care!

“The local council is supposed to be the guardian of the borough’s history, not the destroyer of it. Wandsworth’s Conservatives are cultural vandals”, said local campaigner Anna Ahmed.
