Local MP Sarah Teather was voted Opposition Parliamentarian of the Year by Asian Voice readers

Local Liberal Democrat Brent MP Sarah Teather has been voted Opposition Parliamentarian of the year by readers of the popular Asian Voice newspaper.

Sarah fought off tough competition from other parliamentarians, including Shadow Chancellor Vince Cable, to win the award in a ceremony in the House of Commons on Thursday night. The award recognises Sarah's robust work in holding the Government to account.

Other winners in the annual Asian Voice Political and Public Life Awards included Christian Colson, the co-producer of Slumdog Millionaire, and Eastenders actress Nina Wadeya.

Local Liberal Democrat MP for Brent East Sarah Teather said:

"It is a real honour to be given this award. Asian people have made a huge contribution to life in my constituency and play a vital role in our community here in Brent.

"I send my warm congratulations to the other winners, and a huge thank you to everyone who voted for me."

    If you are a resident of the Brent Central constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
