Preparing for Full Council on Wednesday

Tonight, we had our Labour group pre-council meeting, in the absence of the Chair it fell to me to Chair the meeting. Due to accommodation issues we were in the Council ante room, with over 20 in attendance it was pretty cramped and the lack of air conditioning did not assist either, a problem throughout Merton Council's buildings.

On Wednesday we have the first full Council since the election (excluding the AGM) and we will have our first opportunity to ask the minority Tory administrations about what they have been up to since taking office six weeks ago. The Labour group has tabled a number of questions.

I will hopefully be posting a full report of the Council meeting shortly afterwards. The meeting will no doubt have its share of entertaining moments along with the latest antics of the Tory cabinet.
