London Liberal Democrats have announced that Rob Blackie will be our candidate in the Mayoral elections next year.
Congratulations to Rob!
OK, so not quite the usual photo for a serious candidate, but we loved this photo of Rob with Hina Bokhari, London Assembly member. They had been Wombling on Wimbledon Common.
Rob grew up in Pimlico and now lives near Brixton in South London and runs his own business as an adviser to start-up tech companies.
Rob has been a life-long Lib Dem who served as Charles Kennedy’s Director of Research during the Iraq War. Since then he has been the London Assembly candidate for Lambeth and Southwark in 2012 and a Londonwide list candidate in 2016 and 2021.
You can read much more about him on his website, including his project that stands up to Russian censorship.
* Mary Reid is a contributing editor on Lib Dem Voice. She was a councillor in Kingston upon Thames, where she is still very active with the local party, and is the Hon President of Kingston Lib Dems.
