Newham Independents Party
Our Leader
Mehmood Mirza
Dear Resident,
My name is Mehmood Mirza, and like you, I call Newham my home. For 28 years, I have lived, worked, and raised my family in this vibrant borough. As a proud law graduate of the University of East London, I have deep roots here. My children were born here; they attended Central Park Primary School, Brampton Manor Academy, and Newvic College. As a father watching them head off to university, I am deeply invested in the future of our community because it is the future of our children.
I am proud to have served as the first-ever Independent Councillor elected in the London Borough of Newham for the Boleyn Ward. We are leading the borough, delivering more casework for residents more than any other councillor.
Today, I am standing as Newham Independents Party Mayoral Candidate to offer you a real alternative to the status quo that has governed our borough for 60 years.
Since 1965, Newham Council has followed the same path. If you feel it is time for change, I ask for your vote as a resident-first representative committed to facilitate working class families so they can relax instead of being chased by the system.

The Mayor seems to be running out of ideas and is increasingly adopting policies that Newham Independents put forward in our manifesto.
When these proposals came before Full Council, Labour and the Mayor voted against them. They even attempted to weaken them with amendments that
Mayor Forhad Hussain seems to have forgotten that the motion to extend free school meals to secondary schools was my motion behalf of NIP, a motion he chose to abstain on.
Now he is taking credit. Funny how memories return when it suits. Better luck rewriting history next time.
HISTORIC VICTORY FOR NEWHAM! 🇵🇸✊
History has been made.
On Monday night, Newham Council passed the Ethical Investment and Divestment from Human Rights Violations motion, proposed by the Newham Independents. This marks a significant step towards ensuring that Newham’s pension
Well done. We will be pushing for the same in Redbridge !
I presented my first report as Chair of Overview and Scrutiny at Newham Council, and I am proud to be the first woman to hold the role.
As I said, scrutiny is not about scoring political points. It is about making sure decisions are made in the best interests of our residents.
WHY YOU SHOULD SUPPORT
Newham Independents?
Activists
We are familiar with the deep inequalities and deprivation experienced here and can always be approached to discuss the issues faced by the constituents.
Socialists
We are socialists, politicised by our own lived experiences and we are proud of our history of standing up for our rights.
Campaigners
We have been actively involved in local campaigns to protect public services. Tackling inequalities and standing up for marginalised communities has always been key to us.
