Again, another example of how our neighbours have not keep the “local community” in the loop?
The first being the Hustings when MP candidates were slogging it out and now this?
Neither this event or the Hustings were mentioned at the Roehampton Forum or the Roehampton Partnership………the latter being the main advisory group for Roehampton.

Quite interested to see what their motivation is . . . do they have some inkling of how Olympian they’re perceived as being ? Is this the charge of the Nice Brigade ?
It’s sweet that entry is free, and I even understand refreshments are to be provided gratis. But is that enough to buy Roehampton’s goodwill with ? Or is this another exercise of ‘soft power’, entwining with Saffron Woodcraft (ha!) and her crew’s mimsy cultural imperialism ?
