Has the SCC leader been grappling with how he grabs wealth in East Surrey to pay for losses elsewhere? Can we ask the opposite question? Can we have an election to determine who we want to grapple with this question other than the current incumbent?

Cancelling elections is deeply undemocratic. Councillors need to be accountable to their electorate
& although unitary authorities are desirable a rushed solution without consultation & agreement risks a bodge job

Elections in Surrey could be postponed for a year, after the county council agreed to write to the government to request a delay.

If he wants to do this & force it on us, it should come with the caveat that he rules himself out of being mayor if the option comes up in 2027-28. It would slightly soothe my nerves that forcing a debt mountain onto those who didn't cause it is for self serving reasons.

Very true - as far as I am aware Reigate and Banstead is the only council in Surrey with Financial reserves.
They should not be used to pay of the debts of other councils in Surrey.
We need our Theatre replaced and a proper Police Station, not sent elsewhere.

Not just SCC Leader..,
Yesterday the following local councillors all voted to cancel the election 🗳️ this May
Tory Cllrs Bennett, Beach, Kelly, Lewanski, Bramhall & Green Cllr Baart
We believe that the election should go ahead- local democracy & accountability is important

There it is - in the video I posted yesterday I noted this accelerated option that they're taking, which is TOTALLY UNNECESSARY. We need this stalled asap.

Just repair it! You are grossly underfunding the school.
Stop the games, stop failing the school and stop failing the children in it.

Cllr Ernest Mallett shows his concern for older people whose homes could potentially be flooded: “I’ve been up to my waist in water, and I’m still here.” 🤬

Oil drilling at our local extraction site #Horsehill has been suspended. Do I think this is the end of the story? I’ll keep my eyes and ears open. #Reigate #Horley @yourtownreigate @LoveReigate
UKOG has finally been shamed into suspending operations at Horse Hill

In answer to your question the SCC spend to end of September was £2,42 million purely on Woodhatch Place school planning matters. This expenditure will continue unless stopped.

"In Surrey, despite the judgement, oil continues to be pumped at the Horse Hill well."
Tory SCC says this is unlawful but don't try to stop it from happening.

Great decision last night to refuse #RedhillTowers on Redhill station as too high + no affordable homes
Adding extra floors to tower blocks doesn't create 'character'
Now need better plan for Redhill town centre. Must start by reopening #TheHarlequin

Thanks for your quick response. I have asked SCC (twice) but had no response. As the building owner and lessee, does RBBC not have an obligation to ensure the building is maintained in accordance with the lease and listing conditions?

@SurreyCouncil I don't think I noticed a reply to this. Please can you confirm when the planning application for the proposed Priory School Move will be going to committee?

Since Paul doesn't mention it, it's worth saying that he stood as a Conservative for Mole Valley Council in Fetcham in 2024, but lost to LibDem Caroline Joseph. Tim Hall, also a Fetcham Councillor, was Chair of the Planning Committee last time they tried to move Priory School.

Reigate Priory school is voting for a new governor. All parents with kids at the school can vote. Please consider voting for Roma Pipe, who would be excellent. Not the other guy, who won't even mention which party he worked for (can you guess)? docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…
