As part of our use of HoL in the 2010 elections, we're upload and asking other people to upload copies of any local party political promotional material they come across. There are parts of three wards in Harringay:
Harringay (all)
St Ann's (part)
Seven Sisters (part)
Material from all three is welcome.
The aim is help to keep track of what each candidate/party has on offer. We'll also be able to remind those elected of what they said this Spring.
David Schmitz is standing both as a parliamentary candidate for Tottenham and as a councillor for Harringay ward - all bases covered! I think this leaflet is more related to his parliamentary candidature (Click & click again to zoom):
Just got latest Lib Dem leaflet. No scanner otherwise would post. It says David Lammy claimed 25k in second home allowances, is that true? I thought I' looked when the various lists came out and he was not on them.
If you look at TheyWorkForYou for David Lammy, you can see that he claimed £12,041 in 2003-4 and £13,222 in 2002-3. This may be where they are getting those figures from. With no receipts from that far back - can't be sure how he racked up those figures.
Alison - he used to have a second home elsewhere in London. (I blogged about this a little while back, including a scan of the Haringey Advertiser's story at the time.)
(Exciting disclaimer: I'm a member of the Lib Dems and as you can see from my profile, used to work for the party.)
