John Matthew Braithwaite
Liberal Democrats candidate for Abbey
“In John's own words
“John has lived in Wimbledon for over 30 years, so can safely say that Wimbledon is his home. Before he retired, he worked as a business analyst both for a small consultancy and for a manufacturing company. This took him throughout the UK as well as such places as China, South Africa and Romania.”
“On retirement, he and his wife considered following friends to live in the country, but they realised that all they liked doing was close by, and they loved living here. If elected, John is looking forward to making use of his business skills in understanding issues and finding practical solutions to improve the lives of those he represents.”
