We wish all of our constituents a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!

Christmas is a time for family and friends to come together to celebrate and reflect on the year that has passed. It is also a time of peace and goodwill, and we hope that in 2009, peace will finally come to those lands currently torn by war and strife.

Closer to home we will be working to help families in Feltham and Heston and Brentford and Isleworth through the difficult economic patch in 2009, and looking ahead to a brighter future as the economy picks up.

So Christmas and the New Year is a time to relax, take stock and look forward with new hope.

With that in mind we will be rooting for a promotion for our football club, Brentford FC, next year too!
