    The London Assembly needs to look like the people it seeks to represent. If Shas is elected onto the Assembly she will be the first Muslim woman on the Assembly.

    To support Shas, vote London Liberal Democrats on the orange ballot paper.

    Please note that Shas's name will not appear on the ballot paper, but every vote for London Liberal Democrats on the orange ballot paper will directly help Shas get elected - and in the process help kick the BNP off the London Assembly.

  • Caroline Pigeon, Shas Sheehan, Dave Busby & Campaigners - One Hour Bus Ticket
    Article: Apr 11, 2012

    Lib Dem campaigners joined in force on 12th April, in Wimbledon town centre, to call for one-hour bus tickets to be introduced on London's buses to make journeys easier.

    Caroline Pidgeon AM and Liberal Democrat Deputy Mayoral Candidate said,

    "The ticket would allow commuters to switch to any number of buses within an hour for the price of one journey - just like on the tube. Other cities have it, why not London?"

    Oyster bus fares have soared by nearly 50% since Boris Johnson became Mayor and Londoners have been feeling the pinch.

    Shas Sheehan, London Assembly List Candidate and Parliamentary Spokesperson for Wimbledon Liberal Democrats said,

    "Londoners are telling us that they want a One Hour Bus Ticket and we will continue to work hard to make this a reality - sadly, Mayor Johnson did not back us."

    The One Hour Bus Ticket is part of a five point plan to make travelling cheaper for Londoners.
