A New Blog About a New Politics for London

In the 2012 Mayoral elections for London Siobhan Benita stood as an independent candidate and from a very simple beginning managed an amazing level of success and nearly pushed the Liberal Democrats and Greens into fourth or fifth place. Her message was a simple one, that there needs to be a new type of politics to replace the tired and overly inflexible party politics we have in the UK. This blog is my attempt to further that aim. Hopefully, for the next round of elections we will not only be able to see a strong independent candidate for the Mayor but also independent candidates for the London Assembly
