Friday's Evening Standard has confirmed that almost half of all electoral fraud complaints in London over the last 5 years have come from Tower Hamlets.
Tower Hamlets was responsible for 224 of 455 allegations for electoral fraud and malpractice made since 2012.
The Conservative Party in Tower Hamlets has time and again provided evidence to the police of electoral fraud that has too often not been acted upon.
As Conservative group leader Peter Golds said the Police “repeatedly ignored overwhelming evidence of fraud and malpractice, or officers have done a tick-box exercise without taking any action”
The campaign to have former Mayor of Tower Hamlets Lutfur Rahman face responsibility for his actions finally tasted success when the Electoral Commission removed him from office and ordered the calling of a by election to fairly elect a Mayor for our borough. This would never have taken place without the tireless efforts of dozens of people like Peter Golds to ensure that elections, win or lose, are fought fair.
