When I was Leader of Wandsworth's Labour Councillors I wrote a regular column for the popular www.putneysw15.com website.

And following my selection, it was Sandi - the editor of that website - who was one of the first in touch to say "well done" and to ask for my comments on being selected as Labour's parliamentary candidate.

The website has a vibrant discussion forum that came into its own recently as a means for local residents rightly appalled by the Council's attempts to close Wandsworth Museum, the De Morgan Centre and West Hill Library to communicate, build the mass campaign against the closure and keep the community informed of developments.

You can read the putneysw15 news article about my selection here, and I very much look forward to renewing my association with this website, which provides an invaluable source of news, information and, dare I say, gossip for the people of Putney and Roehampton.
