With just a few days to polling in the Stroud Green by election, local resident and Lib Dem candidate Laura Edge is predicting that the election will be a head-to-head battle between the Lib Dem opposition and Haringey Labour. The Lib Dem candidate says that support for the Tories and Greens is fading, as voters realise that neither party has any seats on the local council. .

Laura Edge says that people have responded to her positive campaign for the area, which includes tackling rubbish, better management of Finsbury Park, continuing to work to improve enforcement of the CPZ and promoting a clean up of Stroud Green Road and the area’s dilapidated strain stations.

Ms Edge also says that Labour’s poor record in the area is having a big impact on the doorstep, following the shock resignation of the local Labour councillor.

Laura Edge comments:

“After more than 30 years of Labour control, Stroud Green voters are preparing to send a message to Haringey Labour, that they have had more than enough time to get things right. There is a strong feeling that it’s time for a change.”
