Manifesto:

Siobhan is the modern candidate for London’s Mayor. She is in touch with Londoners and understands their day-to-day concerns.

Siobhan has real experience at the highest levels in policy and decision making. She has worked in many government departments including the Treasury and the Cabinet Office. She resigned from her job in January 2012 to run as a mayoral candidate because she believes that Londoners deserve a better, more relevant choice in this election.

Three reasons to vote for Siobhan Benita:

• She is independent - she will focus on people and not waste time on party politics
• She will make education a key priority – London’s children deserve the best start in life
• She will be an inclusive mayor, creating jobs and opportunities for people and businesses
