šŸ« Proud to support Fulbridge Academy

Today we visited Fulbridge Academy with Peterborough City Council’s Director for Highways to discuss school drop-off concerns and explore practical solutions.

I’ve had the privilege of serving as a Governor at Fulbridge for the past three years a fine North Ward institution with an Outstanding Ofsted legacy stretching back to 2012.

With schools facing growing pressures, particularly around SEND, we’ll continue working together to support Fulbridge, its pupils and families.

🟔 BOURGES BOULEVARD – ā€œA SENSIBLE COMPROMISEā€?

The Labour councillor leading on this calls it a ā€œsensible compromise.ā€

But the yellow line was installed without the full consensus of residents, and now part of it is having to be removed.

Cllr Javed Akhtar and I have supported residents, including Robert Harris, who want it gone. We will continue pressing for the entire line to be removed.

What a waste of council resources, putting it down, only to start taking it back up.

We’re also supporting residents’ petition for speed humps on Bourges Boulevard to tackle speeding and improve road safety.

Residents deserve to be listened to. Not dictated too

Great to attend the Police community meeting at the Salvation Army in North Ward, alongside residents and Cllr Murtaza Ahmed Munir of Park Ward.

With our wards sharing a boundary, many of the same concerns around anti-social behaviour and drug-related activity affect both communities.

We want to see better feedback from Police when residents report issues, and the return of Police & Councillor surgeries to strengthen local engagement.

Together, we’ll continue to push for action and results.

Last night, scrutiny sent the administration’s Local Plan decision back to Cabinet for reconsideration.

Thank you to Cllr Kirsty Knight, fellow councillors who supported the call-in and committee members who considered our concerns.

Peterborough needs 196 hectares of employment land, yet Cabinet removed a major allocation, leaving a significant shortfall.

I welcome robust political debate and challenge. But questioning councillors’ professional credibility doesn’t answer the evidence and statements made in doing so should, at the very least, be factually correct.

Cabinet now has an opportunity to genuinely reconsider the concerns raised by scrutiny. Simply returning with the same decision without properly addressing those concerns would raise serious questions about what scrutiny is actually for.

And a Local Plan shaping Peterborough for years should be debated by all 62 elected councillors at Full Council not decided by just 10 Cabinet members.

Scrutiny has challenged the decision. Cabinet now needs to answer the evidence and demonstrate that it has listened.

🌱 Standing with Wesleyan Road Allotments

After concerns were raised about repeated vandalism and security issues, Cllr Javed Akhtar and I visited Wesleyan Road Allotments to meet Mick and see firsthand what plot holders have been dealing with.

This is a valued community space and we’ll be taking these concerns forward and pushing for practical action.

For us, being a local councillor isn’t about looking busy, it’s about listening, taking action and getting results. šŸ˜‰

A big thank you to Mick and Jackie for inviting us down and for everything they do for the allotments.

šŸ—ļø Peterborough deserves better than last-minute decision making.

After years of work on the Local Plan, the Labour-led administration made an eleventh-hour change to something that will shape our city for decades.

That’s why, alongside Cllr Kirsty Knight and Cllr Steve Allen, I’ve backed the call-in.

We are pro-development and pro-regeneration but growth must be properly planned, evidence-led and backed by the infrastructure our communities need.

We’ll continue holding the administration to account and pushing for the right growth for Peterborough.

šŸŒ§ļø Flooding Update – North Ward

Cllr Javed Akhtar and I were out on St Paul’s Road and Woodcote Close this afternoon following significant flooding caused by the heavy rain.

With concerns about water potentially entering residents’ homes, we raised this urgently with Highways.

Officers have now responded and explained the drainage issues affecting the area — their response is shared below šŸ‘‡

We’ll continue to follow this up and push for action to protect residents.

Out in the rain in North Ward today

We’ve reported the issue for urgent action, as the water levels are a real concern and could potentially enter residents’ homes if they continue to rise.
