Magnus Terek Sorensen

Labour candidate for Crystal Palace & Upper Norwood

Labour

I’m standing to be a councillor who’s visible, approachable, and firmly on the side of local people. Crystal Palace & Upper Norwood has a unique, independent spirit — and I want to protect and strengthen that. From supporting our brilliant high streets and local businesses to keeping our streets clean and safe, I’ll focus on the things that matter day to day. I believe good councillors listen and act. That means being out in the community, taking concerns seriously, and following through to get results. Working with a Labour government, we have a real opportunity to bring more investment into our area — and I’ll make sure our community benefits. If elected, I’ll be a strong voice for residents and a councillor you can rely on.
