Five Tower Hamlets mayoral candidates faced residents' questions for the first time this election season on Thursday, 5 April, appearing at the Cycling and Walking Hustings arranged by the borough's cycling campaign group Tower Hamlets Wheelers. The current Mayor, John Biggs (Labour), was joined in Limehouse Town Hall by Anwara Ali (Conservative), Elaine Bagshaw (Liberal Democrat), Ciaran Jebb (Green) and Rabina Khan (People's Alliance of Tower Hamlets).

On Wednesday, 14th May at 7pm Tower Hamlets Wheelers will hold our first Mayoral Cycling Hustings. Ahead of the local elections on 22nd May we have invited all the declared mayoral candidates to come and speak about how they would improve cycling in the borough. Each candidate will have the opportunity to make a short speech followed by an Q&A session and then informal discussion.
