Campaigns

In conjunction with Wimbledon's Conservatives Richard is campaigning

• For a safer London with more police officers out patrolling our street
• For a fairer deal for local commuters

• To protect and improve London's environment
• To stop the Labour Governments planned expansion of Heathrow Airport and to reduce the nuisances associated with living so close to an airport
