Caroline gets things done. She has superb people skills, is efficient, effective and extremely hard working. She will always be my first choice.
Baroness Dee Doocey
Former London Assembly Member and Richmond Councillor
Caroline has made a real impact on the London Assembly, challenging the Mayor on key issues, pushing progressive liberal ideas for London and regularly appearing in the London media. Caroline is just the energetic candidate we need for Mayor and the Assembly to increase our votes across London next May.
Lord Graham Tope
Former London Assembly Member, MP and Leader of Sutton Council
Caroline is a diligent, hardworking Assembly Member who has led our City Hall group with vigour and determination. She will make an excellent Mayoral candidate, focussing on the key issues affecting Londoners from housing to transport to jobs.
Rt Hon Vince Cable
MP for Twickenham 1997 to 2015
Caroline and I were ward Colleagues on Southwark Council for 12 years. We took a safe Labour ward with a 26% swing back in 1998. Over that time I saw the impact Caroline had on our area and on our community, helping to make major improvements to our ward and the Borough, as well as supporting individual people with a massive caseload. She is energetic, focussed, creative and most of all fun. Caroline is exactly the right choice to be our London Mayoral candidate and to lead the London Assembly List again.
Jelil Ladipo
Southwark Lib Dem Councillor 1998 to 2010
I have worked closely with Caroline since she moved to Southwark over 20 years ago. Caroline works tirelessly to fight for justice and the people she represents. Caroline has so much experience as a campaigner, councillor, cabinet member and Assembly Member, which makes her the perfect choice to lead our 2016 London Mayor and Assembly campaign.
Rt Hon Simon Hughes
MP for Bermondsey and Old Southwark 1983 to 2015
London Mayoral Candidate 2004
I have been fortunate enough to work closely with Caroline in London for many years. She is an exceptional campaigner and a true liberal. She has kept the focus relentlessly on issues that matter to Londoners such as transport and policing. She will bring this same drive and experience to the role of Mayor as well as the Assembly and I whole heartedly support her campaign to be selected.
Baroness Susan Kramer
Richmond Park and North Kingston MP 2005 to 2010
London Mayoral Candidate 2000
Caroline is a star. She is a great liberal, a fantastic campaigner and has been really effective in her work across London. We need her to lead the London campaign in 2016.
Julian Huppert
MP for Cambridge 2010 to 2015
Caroline is committed to equality and opportunity for all and I was delighted to help launch her campaign focussing on the issue of childcare in London. As a former London Assembly Member and equality campaigner, I am know that Caroline will be bringing her expertise to bear in this campaign. She would make an excellent Mayor and is a superb London Assembly Member.
Lynne Featherstone
MP for Hornsey and Wood Green 2005 to 2015
Former London Assembly Member
Caroline has a strong profile in the media and across London, campaigning and championing the issues that matter to local people. As Leader of the Lib Dems on the London Assembly Caroline is in a unique position to increase our votes for both the Mayor and Assembly ensuring the Lib Dem fight back in London.
Paul Burstow
MP for Sutton and Cheam 1997 to 2015
Caroline will be an exceptional voice for London. She will dedicate herself to representing the needs and views of Londoners. She will stand up for the needs of the travelling public. And she will be the positive voice of a campaigning party. I know this because in every one of the 20 years I have worked with her this is exactly what she has achieved.
James Gurling
Southwark Councillor 1998 to 2010
I am delighted to support Caroline Pidgeon for the forthcoming Mayoral Elections. She has a proven track record as a GLA member and will be a formidable asset to the Party. With Caroline at the helm we have the golden opportunity to get back to our winning ways. The Labour Party is in political wilderness and the Conservatives have failed to meet the growing needs of Londoners. I want to ensure that this election will rightly reclaim the votes we lost in the past elections and prove that we are a political force to reckon with.
Lord Navnit Dholakia
Deputy Leader of the Liberal Democrats in the House of Lords
