It’s polling day in London!
These are the first Mayor of London London Assembly elections where you’ll need ID to vote. A person in the queue in front of me when I voted earlier was turned away because he didn’t have ID - please remember to bring it with you.

London Mayor Hustings just starting at London Gypsies&Travellers with Zoë Garbett Hina Bokhari AM 🔶 and Sem Moema 🌹🐝💪🏾 earlier this evening.
Wide ranging conversation showing how AMs work effectively cross party in our work listening to Londoners.
(No mob signal so couldn’t post at time).
Feel passionately about the issues we raised at the London Gypsies&Travellers hustings today.
Discrimination, housing and mental health are areas I and the London Liberal Democrats will focus on for the community in the London Assembly.
#VoteLibDem so that every voice is heard in City Hall.
Massive thanks to London Gypsies&Travellers for inviting me to talk about what Sadiq Khan as Mayor of London, & I as your London Assembly Member, will do for the Gypsy, Roma & Traveller community.
Focused on boroughs and GLA delivering London Plan sites, education, young ppl & policing
Looking forward to the London Gypsies&Travellers manifesto event tonight.
We must make sure all voices of London are heard and involved in the decisions we make in our city.
Mental health, discrimination and housing are key areas of concern where we need to see clear action.
Thousands of families have been housed in temporary accommodation for at least a *decade*.
As Matthew Bolton Citizens UK says, childhoods are being “stolen through poor quality temporary accommodation that isn’t temporary at all”
