I work at a different London Borough, but in my organisation most office based staff have been working at home since March. I've been in my "work" borough exactly twice in the last eight months, on both occasions it was en route to somewhere else.

<p>I don't work for the council but have just finished my second two year term as a non councillor Scrutiny representative, and those meetings where they have taken place have all been online since March, and this will mean that officers, councillors and anyone else involved is probably logging in at home and won't be having to drive home from a meeting which ends at 10 pm or later!
