Following his retirement in 2000, he set up, with his brother, a small family wine business operating from the Borough Market.

In 2008, David was appointed as the Mayor of London's (Boris Johnson) representative on the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority, upon which he served until 2016, overseeing the effective running of London's Fire Brigade.

With his colleague Councillor Will Rowlands he runs regular local surgeries both on the Mottingham estate and at Mottingham library, dealing with a wide variety of local issues and problems.
