Councillor Helene Richman joins Lib Dems from Conservatives
News from Barnet in North London of a new Liberal Democrat councillor:
On joining the Liberal Democrats, Helene Richman, who will be standing the May local elections, said:
Iām watching as the Conservatives are letting inequality rise and living standards drop. They have given up on communities like ours.
So today I am announcing that I have resigned from the Conservative Party, and joined the Liberal Democrats, so that I can continue to work to bring the community of West Hendon together.
The Lib Dems believe in giving voice to communities like West Hendon. Like me, the Lib Dems believe in a fair and just society. Where everyone, no matter their background, feels comfortable and supported.

Great news from West Hendon. Let’s hope the seat is held in May. My second election was in 1978 when I add stood for the party in West Hendon. I left London in 1979 got myself elected down in Dorset.but still follow London Lib Dems.
