Caroline's news

Caroline joined local Cllr Harvey Rose and a huge team of Lib Dem activists including Tony Miller on a walkabout in Ealing Broadway on Monday.

The team had a wonderful reception from local residents and passengers.

Caroline joined local activists out and about in Hillingdon today, giving out leaflets in Uxbridge.

“It was great to talk to so many residents and hear any issues Uxbridge residents have with transport and policing” commented Caroline.

Caroline joined local by-election candidate Jane Dodds, London Assembly candidate Munira Wilson, Robin Meltzer and other local Lib Dems in North Richmond meeting residents and traders concerned about speeding traffic on Lower Mortlake Road.

Caroline joined Brian Paddick on Sunday meeting Latinos, Lusophone, Hispanic and Iberian American communities in West Norwood.

The Lib Dem team spoke, through a translator, to the hundreds of Spanish and Portuguese speakers present about their vision for London and the work of the Liberal Democrats supporting the community.

Caroline joined an estimated 10,000 cyclists in the Big Ride in central London in support of the 'Going Dutch' campaign organised by the London Cycling Campaign.

The massive crowd, representing every age and background, braved at-times atrocious weather to be part of the UK’s largest-ever bike ride supporting safer streets for cycling. Liberal Democrat Mayoral candidate Brian Paddick and Simon Hughes MP, Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats also took part, reinforcing the strong support of the Liberal Democrats to safer streets for Londoners.

Caroline was one of the first politicians to formally endorse the campaign and over the last four years has repeatedly raised issues relating to cycle safety in her work on the London Assembly.
