Lidl is preparing a third attempt to build a supermarket at The Orchard. Rather than joining the political theatre, the RRA is waiting to see the actual facts and plans.

Almost exactly a year after the London Borough of Hillingdon Planning Committee unanimously refused Lidl’s application to demolish The Orchard and build a supermarket, the retailer is back for anot…

RRA’s Proposed Upgrade for Ruislip Bus Station

The recent re-routing of several buses in Ruislip due to congestion at Ruislip Bus Station has been causing problems for our residents, and especially the many visitors who come on hot days for Ruislip Lido. TfL have still not explained exactly what the problems are that caused it to suddenly remove Ruislip STation from the H13 and U10 routes. We and our councillors have asked but are still awaiting a reply....

From constitutional changes to closed-door decisions: how the Council reacted to a local scandal. This article is not about whether the Theo’s Café lease was lawful or unlawful. It is about what Hi…

Hillingdon missed the FOI deadline for Cowley Meeting Hall records. The ICO is now investigating, Labour says it reported the matter to police, and residents still need answers.

The Council has defaulted on its FOI obligations, the Information Commissioner has stepped in, and the original lease arrangement has been reported to the police. Here is what Hillingdon Council st…

The reality behind the rhetoric: avoided meetings, stolen credit on the Ruislip bus fiasco, refused handshakes at the count, and slashed financial scrutiny.

In recent pre-election videos, Cllr Peter Smallwood boldly praised his own track record of transparency. He told voters, “We hope you think we have been visible, we are regularly on the Ruis…
