IN OCTOBER we usually celebrate Black History. This month we are looking at how Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME) Councillors are making new history.

“I would like to thank the people of Newham for putting their faith and trust in me, in Labour, and in may vision for our borough. This council will not only look very different, but will be different with more transparency, accountability and residents involved in decision making.
“As Mayor, I will put the people of Newham at the heart of everything I do. This will be a collaborative joint enterprise between residents, myself, councillors and the council. I can’t wait to get started in this new chapter of working for the people of Newham as their public servant.”
Mayor Rokhsana Fiaz OBE, Newham, 4th May 2018
