Responding to the new that the Tower Hamlets Mayor Lutfur Rahman is under investigation into claims of fraud, Tower Hamlets Green Party Mayoral candidate Chris Smith said:
“The community of Tower Hamlets deserves to see a full and thorough investigation into this matter – only that way can we ensure residents are provided with the public service they need and deserve from their elected politicians.
The Tower Hamlets Green Party today launched our own Mayoral campaign and we will continue to shout loud and clear about the vision we have for this borough: a vision built on equality, a fair economy, and a clean and healthy environment”.
