Dear Hamish,

I’m delighted to announce that Caroline Pidgeon has been selected as our Mayoral candidate.

Having worked with Caroline on the London Assembly I know what a formidable campaigner she is and what a great advocate for our party she will be over the next nine months.

Caroline is already off to a flying start – you can catch her on BBC London this morning at 8.45am, and she will be officially launching her campaign with Tim Farron later today.

Caroline has told me she wants our campaign to focus on:

• Supply of housing to meet demand and the scandal of high rents
• Flexibility and affordability of childcare
• Air pollution
• Transport fares that meet modern day lifestyles

I know that Caroline can’t wait to start campaigning and plans to visit every local party on the campaign trail as soon as possible.

Help us make sure we can produce the materials that Caroline needs to make an impact in this campaign by making a donation to her fighting fund today. (donate link)

The results of the London Assembly selection will be announced soon.

PS Every penny you give today will go towards publicising Caroline& London Liberal Democrats’ campaigns.
