PROSPECTIVE MAYORAL CANDIDATE SAYS SHOP LOCAL THIS SATURDAY!
.
.
UPKAR SINGH RAI is asking all Londoners to shop local this Saturday!
.
Upkar is the National Liberal Party’s (NLP) prospective candidate for 2016 London Mayor. The NLP is the only political party in Britain for which self-determination is its raison d’etra. This includes economic self-determination.
.
Mr. Rai is standing on a Quality of Life ticket – and central to this campaign is his support for local shops, small businesses and the self-employed.
.
Saturday December 5 is Small Business Saturday, a national campaign based on an initiative to promote and support small and independent businesses in communities across the country by encouraging consumers to shop locally.
.
Mr. Rai is an IT Consultant and Uber driver working in the city and lives in Ilford, Essex (see fuller biography). He is also a well-known self-determinist, human rights activist and a member of the NLP’s ruling National Council.
.
He said:
.
“With the growth of internet shopping, giant shopping centres and multiple chain stores, a wide variety of independent shops and retailers across London make a positive contribution to the local economy of each borough.
.
“They not only provide a welcome range of choice, quality and good value, but also help give our shopping centres and parades their unique identities and character.
.
“What better way to start off Christmas shopping than Shop Local Saturday!”
.
The campaign is calling upon shoppers to get involved by tweeting pictures of what they’re doing on the day and pledging support.
