Lazar Monu
Reform UK candidate for Beckton
I came to the UK 17 years ago, thinking I’d only be here for six months. But I fell in love with this country and built my life and family here. As a dad of two, I worry about the same things many parents do—rising crime, whether my wife and children feel safe, and why our council tax keeps going up when services don’t get any better. I never thought I’d stand in an election. But I’ve reached the point where I can’t just sit back and complain—I want to try and make things better for families like mine, and yours too. On September 18, I’d be grateful for your support. If you share my concerns for your family and our community, please vote for me.
