Gita Bapat announced as Shortlands & Park Langley by-election candidate
Gita Bapat is standing as the Liberal Democrat candidate in the 2nd May Shortlands & Park Langley by-election.
A Shortlands resident, Gita was born and raised in Bromley and, apart from stints in China at university and in Paris and Hong Kong as a trailing spouse, she has spent all of her life here.
Gita wants to make sure the Liberal Democrat values of equity, even-handedness and accountability find a voice in our current fractious environment. She will speak up for local residents, work hard for everyone in the ward, challenge the Conservatives to protect our local services, our parks, our High Streets and the character of our borough. And she will be a voice for those who struggle to be heard.
In her spare time she volunteers with a local charity of which she is a Trustee and is passionate about singing.
