Page 1 of 5 Phil Thomas From: "Chris Philp MP" <[email protected]> Date: 17 May 2016 12:47 To: <[email protected]> Subject: Update from Chris Philp MP on Southern Rail, Coulsdon parking, Purley Re-cycling Centre and other issues Dear All I am continuing to work hard on local and national issues as Croydon South’s MP and this email contains updates on some local issues you may find of interest. I have also held 15 street stalls on Saturday mornings on high streets around the constituency in the past 8 months and met with hundreds of local residents. The first item below is about the appalling service offered by Southern Rail. I am hosting a public meeting with them on 24 th May – please do come along if you can. Please also forward this email to any friends, family and neighbours who may be interested. Southern Rail Public Meeting Southern Rail has been one of the biggest issues facing our neighbourhood for some time. The constant delays have plighted commuters and leisure travellers alike. I have been complaining to Ministers, Southern and Network Rail and it is now time for residents to get a chance to hear from the train companies directly. To this end, I am hosting a public meeting on 24 th May at 7.30pm at Purley United Reform Church (in the hall). This is at 906 Brighton Road, Purley CR8 2LN, next to the hospital. There is no parking on site, so people driving are advised to use the multi-storey or the pay & display hospital car park. -

London Liberal Democrats
Parliamentary Constituency Boundary Review 2013 London Liberal Democrats 2nd Consultation: Our Response to representations on the Initial Proposals 1. Overview 2. Sutton Analysis 3. Possible alternatives to Academics’ Scheme Parliamentary Constituencies Review 2013 London Region Liberal Democrat Comments on the Response to the initial proposals 1. Introduction 1.1 This is the second submission to the Boundary Commission for England on behalf of London Liberal Democrats in relation to the 2013 Parliamentary Constituency review. As before it extends only to the areas covered by the London European Parliament electoral region and should be read in conjunction with the separate submissions covering the other regions. 1.2 This submission contains our comments on the more than 5,000 representations the Commission received during the first consultation period on the “Initial Proposals”. We will also state what view we have of the submissions submitted by the Labour and Conservative parties. 1.3 However, we regard the most significant single representation by far to have come not from a political party but from Prof Ron Johnson, Dr Charles Pattie and Dr David Rossiter (and which for brevity we call “the Academics’ Scheme”). We were impressed by the way their scheme has been constructed by following an explicit reasoned methodology and reflects the measurable statutory criteria more strongly than the Initial Proposals. 1.4 We consider this representation separately in Part 5 of this submission. Our view is that this scheme provides a substantially better starting point for the new constituency map in London than the Initial Proposals. Inevitably there are a number of locations where we think their proposals can be improved (particularly with regard to local ties) without damaging too greatly their overarching aim of maintaining stability in the constituency map.
