BACL’s Got Talent Political Champions
Introduction • Background • ‘What I stand for’ • Plans
Background • Proudly married with 3 grown-up children • Southall resident since 1972 • Entry into politics was driven by the desire to provide a voice for the community • Ealing Councillor since 1982 • Held various local government positions including: • Chair of Housing • Deputy Leader of the Council • Cabinet Member for Environment Improvement • Chair of Recycling and Waste • Mayor of Ealing • Why do I want to become the Ealing Southall MP?
‘What I stand for and why’ My political priorities: • Healthcare • Private vs. NHS • Ealing hospital services in danger • Services for the elderly • Pensioners suffering acute poverty due to linkage with the RPI • Reduction of crime • Personal tragedy of the victims • Less crime = better quality of life
Plans How I intend to delivery on my priorities: • Healthcare • Raise public awareness • Gain professional support • Services for the elderly • Back the drive to link state pension with the Earnings Index • Reduction of crime • Campaign for more police (‘bobbies’) • Less administrative constraints • Punishment that fits the crime How you can help: • Take ownership – make it your own • Thought leadership • Raise funds
…and finally Evidence that G Singh is not averse to getting his hand dirty (albeit with gloves on)
