Dennison's conduct during this campaign has been deplorable. I am pleased that we have held him off. I did do one canvass in this ward when Sadiq Khan came over a few weeks ago.

I know Labour were out to stop him and that there is no love lost between Labour and him. I don’t know the details of the campaign but he came to winning when only a minority of the electors in this ward would have previously been represented by him in the pre-2022 Syon ward. Who are his supporters?
