More about the team:
Cllr Michael
Jones
Aged 23, Michael has lived in Hackney for eleven years. Michael
has experience useful to being a councillor, having spent four
years as one of the lead members of a national network called the
Edge Learner Forum. This role has given him the chance to
collaborate with various national policy-makers. For instance, he
has met with Rt Hon Ed Balls MP, the Secretary of State for
Children, Schools and Families to offer help in spreading the word
about the new Diploma qualification for young people. Edge’s
aim was to inspire young people about the Diplomas and get them to
go and ask their own questions about the qualification. They worked
with the government to make a film about the new 14-19 diplomas
which will be rolled out to schools.
Michael is particularly proud of Hackney Council’s improvements to
education and youth provision. If elected he is committed to making
the borough a safer place in which to live and work, to working to
improve local schools, and to being a strong voice at the Town Hall
for local people’s concerns.
Cllr Ned
Mulready
Ned has lived locally since he was three years old, and lives in
Cranwich Road in the heart of New River Ward. He comes from a
family of well-known local community activists. Aged 24, he is
engaged to be married with a baby due in September. He regularly
uses local facilities such as Clissold Park, the local libraries
for studying, and Homerton Hospital.
His priorities if elected are tackling anti-social behaviour,
improving local public transport, and environmental
sustainability.
He believes that it is important for Hackney Council to provide
more things for young people to do that are free e.g. tennis
courts, football pitches, dance studios etc.
He wants to campaign to get Stamford Hill Station moved into Zone
2. Many local people spend their whole day in Zone 2 apart from the
stop where they start and finish their commute – Stamford Hill.
This would save them hundreds of pounds a year.
