Caroline's news

Caroline spoke on BBC Radio London about the need to end police tactics like suspicionless stop and search in London, which are diminishing confidence in our police

Caroline said:

Caroline spoke to BBC London Politics about the lack of progress on step-free access on the tube, and wider concerns about accessibility on London's transport system.

Caroline said:

Writing for the OnLondon website, Caroline Pidgeon describes the deep economic impact that the pandemic has had on women in London, how it has set back progress on equality, and the need for action from the Government and the Mayor.

We need to be incentivising companies in London to tackle gender inequality in the workplace as we recover from Covid-19. Lib Dem mayoral candidate Luisa Porritt was a champion for gender pay equality as an MEP and would champion the cause from City Hall too as the capital’s first female Mayor.

In the London Assembly, Caroline asked why there are no provisions in the Mayor's budget to support the people affected by the classing and fire safety crisis.

Caroline said:

The government is failing on the cladding and fire safety crisis, yet in London the Mayor could be leading, four years after Grenfell.

Working with the RNIB, Caroline has been raising concerns over the rollout of the Covid-19 vaccination for blind and partially sighted people.

The reply from London's Joint Chief Regional Nurse is encouraging, but clearly a lot more needs to be done, especially at a national level, to ensure all information is accessible. We must ensure access to the vaccine is as easy as possible for all of those with disabilities.
