London Liberal Democrats have today announced their team of candidates for the London Assembly top-up list in 2012. Caroline Pidgeon AM topped the poll of London Liberal Democrat members to lead the London Assembly campaign in 2012.
Liberal Democrat MP for Carshalton and Wallington and London Spokesperson Tom Brake said:
"The Liberal Democrats have a proud record on the London Assembly of holding the Mayor to account. Our Assembly members have led the fight for better value for money from City Hall, better transport services across London and an end to perks for senior police officers at the Met.
"Our list of candidates for 2012 offers Londoners an excellent choice in terms of diversity and equality. They will make excellent additions to our Assembly Team.
"I would like to offer on behalf of London Liberal Democrats our sincere thanks to Dee Doocey and Mike Tuffrey for their many years of service to London."
Both Dee Doocey and Mike Tuffrey had previously announced that they would be standing down from the London Assembly in 2012. Dee Doocey is set to be made a member of the House of Lords early next year.
