We have been made aware that posters with political messages have been illegally displayed close to polling stations.

Our enforcement officers have been carrying out inspections across the borough,  and taking urgent action to remove posters which have been put up on roads and publicly-owned land.

 Fly-posting is a criminal offence and perpetrators face fines of many thousands of pounds. We will seek to prosecute the perpetrators.

 If you see any political signs which are illegally posted along roads or on public land, please report it to us by emailing: waste.enforcement@merton.gov.uk
