Following parliamentary hustings for Hendon and Finchley & Golders Green, the Barnet Muslim Forum organised a question time for the party group leaders on Barnet Council at Hendon Mosque last Tuesday (27 April 2010).
The video is now available online… just in time to give you a chance to review the party positions before going to the polls!
Participants: Lynn Hillan (Conservative, Leader of the Council), Barry Rawlings (Labour, Deputy Group Loader) and Jack Cohen (Liberal Democrat, Group Leader). Event chaired by Mustafa Arif.
Last Thursday, on behalf of the Barnet Muslim Forum, I organised a parliamentary election hustings at Hendon mosque for the Hendon constituency. Present were the candidates from the three main parties: Andrew Dismore MP (Labour), Matthew Offord (Conservative) and Matthew Harris (Lib Dem).
No major gaffe’s from any of them, that I recall…. but a number of “interesting” answers that I wasn’t expecting. A couple of Labour party members present afterwards accused me of being a biased chair, against their candidate. That view was not shared by others present (including other Labour party members) but I apologise if this was the case: it certainly was not my intention to be partial, though in hindsight the seats could have been better spaced out! Anyway, judge for yourself.
