My name is Nick Lockett. I was born in Cheshire and moved to London over 30 years ago and live in Westminster with my Chinese wife. I have practiced law, firstly as a barrister and then as a solicitor with ADL Solicitors and Westminster Law, so I am fully aware of all of the problems we all see daily in Westminster, as well as the benefits of living in this wonderful area of London.
Local Knowledge
Like many Westminster residents, I have watched with increasing frustration and anger, how our neighbourhood has become overrun with drug dealers dealing openly on street corners, drug users using drugs on our doorsteps and leaving needles in the park, the increased homelessness caused by a tsunami of illegal migrants taking up the homeless shelters to the detriment of the existing homeless and daily defaecating in our streets and parks.
Theft and Drugs
When I walk my dog each day, I regularly find in in St James and Green Park discarded purses and bags stolen the previous day.
Daily, I see the discarded needles and drug paraphernalia. I hear how my neighbours have had their bags or phones stolen by hire bike-based thieves and how frustrated they are that the police are too busy to stop this, but seem to have the time to record and investigate Non-Crime Hate Incidences for people writing nasty words online. I hear your opinions the intimidation of the drug dealers and the problem of the homeless. with examples, analysis, or additional context.

REFORMUK – The New Force in Local & National Politics
The Conservatives had over 14 years in Government to cure this problem and did nothing.
Labour have already proven themselves to be no better and are making things worse with higher working taxes and approving massive council tax rises, and Labour repeat Labour’s failures every time they’re elected.
Just 6 months into a Labour Government, Labour have already shown why you can’t rely on their election promises.
At Council level, for the last 15 years, both Labour and the Conservatives have run Westminster Council and the problems get worse every year….and as well as being a lawyer, as an AI specialist, I know we need to reform Westminster Council and bring it into the new era.
