Also, let’s talk about those books.
A book on etiquette, a book on ‘accent reduction’, and a book on teaching manners to children.

Actually, on second thought, let’s not.

Now about that ‘international author claim. Let’s see what #SiamaQadar has written, shall we?

Oh.

Dr Qadar has written three books with a total of 3 ratings on Goodreads.

Now, I'm not going to dis someone for being an indie author. You know, because I am one.

But if I had 3 books with a grand total of 3 ratings … I'm not sure I'd be drawing attention to that in my campaign leaflet, you know?

If you think a local mayor for a single inner London borough can implement these policies without funding, you're more deluded than I was that time I spent a week being pumped full of morphine and thought the bathroom door was talking to me.

And now, let's zero in on a couple of the other pledges.

Siama wants to build more social/affordable homes and combat crime. Two very worthy goals.

But…

Spoiler alert: This is going to be a recurring theme in this review. I like to call it, Oh yeah? #YouAndWhoseMoney? These are nice policies. But the only way a local mayor can implement them is with cash from the central government.

Let’s start with this little snippet right here.

'Reviewing … the effectiveness of universal 20mph roads to alleviate traffic congestion.'

Sounds pretty banal. Except… Is she for 20mph limits or against them?

First up, #SiamaQadar for the #Tories.

Honestly… As Tory manifestos go, this is pretty inoffensive stuff. She’s local. She’s against crime and for affordable housing. She’s an international author … whatever the hell that means.

I dunno. What do you think? Should I dig a bit deeper?
