My investigations into Kingston Council spending in 2020-21 reveal governance and decision-making failures relating to Kingston Council's plans to demolish The Kingfisher Leisure Centre and build a new facility on the site 

Read how timings indicate that Kingston Council knew that its plans to replace The Kingfisher Leisure Centre were out of control even before the planning application to demolish The Kingfisher was approved in September 2021, and yet officers recommended that councillors approve the demolition and councillors approved it without any mention of the problems that had already beset the project
