Whitewebbs Ward

28/05/2026

Enfield Council has formally withdrawn from the government’s New Town programme, following the election of Cllr Alessandro Georgiou as Leader of the Council.

In a letter to the Minister for Housing and Planning, Matthew Pennycook MP, in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, the new Leader confirmed that the Council will no longer support proposals linked to the programme, including development at Crews Hill, Vicarage Farm and across parts of the borough’s Green Belt.

The decision follows May’s local elections, which resulted in a change of administration with 31 Conservative councillors, 27 Labour, and five Green members elected.

The new Conservative leadership campaigned on a clear commitment opposing the New Town proposals.

While withdrawing from the New Town programme, the Council has reaffirmed its commitment to addressing the borough’s housing shortage and supporting economic growth.

Cllr Georgiou said in his letter the Council will work with government to deliver new homes and jobs, with a renewed focus on brownfield sites, and town centre regeneration.

Cllr Georgiou added: “We have been elected on a clear mandate to protect Enfield’s Green Belt, and today we are honouring that commitment by formally withdrawing from the New Town process.

“This does not mean stepping back from the challenge of delivering homes and jobs. We are committed to working with government to meet housing need, but in a way that protects our precious green spaces.

“Our focus will be on a brownfield‑first approach. This means unlocking underused land, regenerating our town centres and delivering the high‑quality family homes that local people need.”

Vote Conservative Today. Polling stations are open from 7am until 10pm.

The Conservatives are the only political party in Enfield with a proven track record of standing up to protect Crews Hill, Vicarage Farm, and the wider Green Belt.

We have made stopping the proposed New Town at Crews Hill our top priority.

We are the only party with a credible path to taking control of the Council and addressing both the local and national threats facing our Green Belt.

At the London Assembly, Conservatives recently brought forward a motion opposing Sadiq Khan’s reversal on Green Belt protections. Reform UK’s Assembly Member voted alongside Labour to defeat the motion. That means Reform voted to build on the Green Belt. You simply can't trust Reform with the Green Belt.

We, as your local Conservatives have clearly set out in our manifesto that if we win control of Enfield Council in today's election, we will immediately withdraw Enfield from the New Town scheme.

On Whitewebbs Park, the Labour-run Council has granted planning permission for Tottenham Hotspur FC’s proposed training ground. However, as the lease has not yet been signed, the agreement is not final. Conservatives have pledged that a Conservative Council would use its legal powers to withdraw from the deal, and save Whitewebbs Park.

Please remember to bring photo ID with you in order to vote. Valid ID includes a passport, a driving licence, a bus pass, a blue badge. A full list of permissible ID is shown here.

Vote Conservative today. Together, let's stop the New Town, save Crews Hill, and save Whitewebbs Park.

Whitewebbs Park belongs to the people of Enfield - not to Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs may have planning permission, given to them by the Labour Council, but the lease has not been signed by Spurs.

Conservatives are crystal clear: If the Conservatives win the election on Thursday, a Conservative council will not sign the lease. The Conservatives would withdraw from it immediately and protect Whitewebbs Park forever by turning it into a dedicated conservation zone.

No sell-off. No land grab by spurs.

Vote Conservative to save Whitewebbs Park.
