In 2003, Brent Liberal Democrats fought a Parliamentary by-election and, miracle of miracles, the amazing Sarah Teather was elected to be the Member of Parliament for Brent East. You may well have been there, many people were.
Five years on, Sarah is still representing the people of Brent East in her usual energetic manner, and we now lead Brent Council as part of a joint administration with the Conservatives (I know, but it was better than the alternative) with a group of twenty-six councillors (twenty-one Labour, thirteen Conservatives, two Independent Conservatives and an Independent). Brent has changed, yet our campaign team march on regardless, taking the fight to Labour in the newly created Brent Central seat.
So, it’s perhaps time to celebrate our success, and we’re holding a dinner to do just that on Thursday week (18 September) at 7 p.m. Vince Cable, the man Labour fear and Conservatives envy, is our guest speaker, there’ll be good food, a steel band and other entertainment, and all for just £28 (a bargain, believe me).
If you want to come along, and we’d really love to see you, the details can be found on Flock Together…
