Currently the Local Government Boundary Commission for England is deciding how to reshape Southwark Council ward boundaries.

They’ve already confirmed that they agree the borough needs to keep its representation via 63 councillors. But the current ward boundaries due to huge changes in local populations mean different councillors have increasingly different numbers of voters they represent.

I also submitted evidence which in summary I’ve suggested East Dulwich remain but add the area bounded by Towny Road – Green Dale – railway line. For Village ward I suggested it relinquish the Herne Hill part in a new 1 councillors ward bounded by Herne Hill – Norwood Road – Crofted Road – Railway line. That the remaining part of Dulwich Village become a 1 councillor ward. That College ward change its name to South Dulwich to reflect that Dulwich College isn’t the dominant political force in the area and become a 2 councillor ward.

But what do you think should happen locally in Dulwich?
