Agreed Michael. I think we're the victims of an attempt to keep certain Labour MP's in power in Dulwich and Streatham which has led to a seat where constituents have nothing in common with those in the east of the borough.

The new MP will have to look at transport issues as diverse as the ELL and Southeastern commuter lines in Grove Park. A Dulwich and Sydenham MP would have had more clout as we'd also have those Southwark residents who also use our station and trains.

An opportunity to unite all of Forest Hill (and Upper Sydenham), regardless of the borough they live in has been lost.
