Stanmore Park by-election July 2011
due to a ward Councillor moving to another Council 

The Conservative candidate Marilyn Ashton has been elected as the ward councillor for Stanmore Park, Harrow, securing over 800 votes majority. The Conservative share of votes was up on May 2010 Council elections.

Questioning Labour’s sale of the Council owned Lidl’s Car Park and Anmer Lodge in Stanmore, Marilyn said, “I’m very concerned about the future vitality of Stanmore District Centre and the failure of the Labour controlled Council to adopt a planning brief to protect a site like this from inappropriate development and to inform prospective purchasers about which type of development would be appropriate for Stanmore and its residents”.
