Welcome to UKIP's Harrow East Campaign.

Hi, I am Abhijit Pandya and I am standing for Parliament for Harrow East. I am standing because I feel that the three big parties, LIb, Lab, Con have not done enough to reform the Parliamentary system to prevent further corruption and abuse of the expenses system.

However, I am also standing because I was born in Edgware and have lived in Harrow for over 15 years. I am deeply concerned how the recession has effected our economy, and particularly the lack of national and international investment in Harrow. When I was younger the Kodak factory used to employ thousands of people. Now it only employs several hundred. Harrow has fantastic links to international airports and Central London, yet fewer and fewer businesses start here.

This has to change. I want to work with local enterprise and increase it, to create a vibrant dynamic Harrow with new job opportunities. I think this is only possible with the low-tax enterprising schemes of UKIP. Unfortunately the Conservative Party has mirrored too many labour policies, and thus will not be able to make the critical changes in the recession we are looking for.

As a former worker in Northwick Park Hospital I know how much that hospital means to you and to me. I will endeavour to look into new NHS management strategies and reduce waiting lists. I will make the hospital cleaner, and more efficient.

Finally, I am here to listen to you, and not to dictate complex policies from above. I want you to have the Harrow you want and to use local taxes and other revenue most effectively to your wishes. It is your Harrow as much is it is mine, let's get together and make it as brilliant as I know it can be.

Abhijit P.G. Pandya.
