Here in the Two Cities, Tim Barnes is your strong local choice for the General Election on Thursday, 4 July.

We asked Tim to tell us more!

Hi, my name is Tim Barnes, and I'm standing to be your next MP here in Cities of London and Westminster. I'm 49 years old. I live in Soho. I work on Strand where I’m the CEO of a small charity that helps people to start a business and get ahead in life, particularly those from deprived backgrounds. I'm passionate about where I live.

I loved my time as a councillor here in Westminster, and indeed as the Cabinet Member for Young People and Learning covering our children's services, our schools and our libraries. I've worked in the past in universities and this has been a theme throughout my life. And I'd like to continue that with the work that I'm doing and the priorities I have for campaigns here.

I want to make sure that we get e-bikes under control, that we better manage them in our cities. I want to make sure that we get a handle on crime and hold Sadiq Khan to account. And I want to improve our air quality. Those are just three of the six main points I'm campaigning on.

And if you want to find out more about those, have a look at my website.
