Yesterday 240 people signed the petition against Boris' cuts to Emergency services in London at our street stall in Chiswick, and this followed stalls last weekend in Hounslow and Feltham - taking the total to almost 700 in just a few hours of activity.
I've never had such positive support from a street stall as we've been having over the last two Saturdays. Nearly everyone has had direct or indirect use of the Ambulance service, their local police station, or the Fire service so threats to these are deeply unpopular. The campaign, launched by the London Assembly Labour group is resonating way beyond party boundaries, and is really bringing home the impact of Osborne's cuts and Boris Johnson's U-turn on his election promises of last year
