Sorry that blogging has been light over the last couple of days, I've been out and about quite a bit.
Here is a quick update.
On Tuesday evening I addressed a meeting of the Crystal Palace and Norwood Chamber of Commerce. There was a great atmosphere even though many of the business were feeling the pinch from the recession. We spoke about transport links, business taxes, regional development and of course the park.
Wednesday was the final debate on the Mayor's 2009/2010 budget. There was a bit of discussion but little meaningful input from the Labour group which was surprising and disappointing.
Last night I had a meeting with James Degale, his father, manager and members of his local Safer Neighbourhood Team and Jeremy Hunt MP. This meeting was hosted by Baroness Warsi because James had contacted Cllr Bertha Joseph (Brent Council) about giving something back to his local area and was thinking of launching a community boxing gym.
I can't go into too much detail now but it looks very exciting.
I'll try to keep on top of the blogging again now. Cheers

You should drop in on 106 Regt. at Grove park if it's in your constituency. They are promoting boxing in their community and want to become a "centre of excellence" within London District.
