Have I seen any of the candidates, NO, and you only see the MP, at the general election, when they want your vote.

📖 The Seven Storey Mountain by Thomas Merton

Here’s a #postcard showing three aspects of #Oxford University. To the left the views show #Magdalen College (top) and #ChristChurch College (lower). The arms are those of #Merton College, and derive from the founder Walter de Merton, and Rochester, of which he was bishop

See this map savewimbledonpark.org/post/map https://www.savewimbledonpark.org/post/map-illustrating-aeltc-plans illustrating the #AELTC (Wimbledon Tennis) plans to build all over #WimbledonPark Metropolitan Open Land that they bought from #Merton Council in 1993 and promised not to build on and even signed covenants saying that they would not build on it. Their excuse to apply for planning permission to bulldoze and build all over it now ? “Times have changed”.

The #Wimbledon #community Forum meets 19.15 on 30 November at Wimbledon Library. The future of #WimbledonPark on is on the agenda. The Forum is convened on behalf of #Merton Council to engage local people in local issues. #AELTC were invited to discuss their planning application to build a massive industrial tennis comp’ex on this #MetropolitanOpenLand (ie #GreenBelt) but turned down the invitation. We’ll still be discussing it anyway #SaveWimbledonPark https://www.savewimbledonpark.org
