Aadi Venkatesh
Green Party candidate for Rotherhithe
Green Party
I have lived in and loved Rotherhithe for more than a decade. I am passionate about addressing the affordability crisis and fighting for real change, not small compromises. We need a local government that listens to and respects residents' concerns, and that's exactly what I intend to deliver if elected.
