Lorely Burt MP leads protesters outside the Civic Centre

Solihull's LibDem MP, Lorely Burt joined placard waving residents in a last ditch attempt to save 3 hectares of Shirley Park being eaten up by an Asda superstore.

The protest, held outside Solihull Civic Centre, was timed to lobby senior Conservative councillors who were due to approve the decision to annexe the parklands at a Cabinet meeting last Thursday night.

Mrs Burt spoke at the meeting but councillors pressed ahead with the decision to approve the annexation of the park as part of the Heart of Shirley development.

    If you are a resident of the Solihull constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
