Oliver recently held a local advice surgery alongside Bushey Park Ward councillors. 

Oliver was joined by Conservative local councillors, Cllr Linda Silver, Cllr Anne Swerling and Cllr David Carter. 

Held in King George Café, Oliver met with a number of local residents to discuss both local and national issues. 

Oliver said: ‘It was a pleasure to be at the King George Recreation Ground to meet with a number of local residents and to discuss both local and national concerns. 

We discussed issues ranging from dangerously parked cars and the local leisure centre to the expansion of ULEZ and housing targets, all of which I have raised with the relevant bodies. 

As ever, if you wish to get in touch with Mr Dowden please contact [email protected].

The great education I got there enabled me to do so much with my life, whether it was winning a place at Cambridge University, working for the Prime Minister or having the privilege of being elected as a Member of Parliament.
