GLA candidate in London North East
Liberal Democrats in the North East Constituency – Islington, Hackney and Waltham Forest, have selected Meral Ece as their candidate for the London Assembly elections due in May 2008.
Meral has had a successful career in the NHS as the chief officer of a Community Health Council, campaigning for better health services.
Commenting on her selection, Meral said:
“ I am extremely proud to be selected as candidate to represent the people of Islington, Hackney and Waltham Forest. I was born here, and have lived in this part of London all my life. I have had the privilege to represent people in Hackney and Islington since 1994.
“All three of my children went to state schools in both Islington and Hackney, where my son is currently studying for his A levels at Stoke Newington Sixth Form.”
“I am determined that the communities of North East London should be effectively represented at the Greater London Assembly, instead of having a GLA member representing the Mayor of London to the electorate”
“For too long the people of this part of London have not had an independent voice representing them at London level. If elected I will fight for the interests of all the communities within this constituency about the issues that concern them, like crime, safer streets, a greener and cleaner environment, social and affordable housing.”
