Steve is seeking election as Mayor of the London Borough of Lewisham. This web site provides information about his track record, policies, pledges and news about the campaign. It will be updated regularly.

Steve was formally nominated as a candidate for Mayor of Lewisham on Friday 5 April. Steve is the Labour Party candidate and enjoys the support of members of the local Party. However he has also received backing from a wide cross section of the community and many local supporters who are not members of the Labour Party have also signed his nomination papers.

London’s Burning actress, Shirley Green and businessman and former chairman of the Lewisham Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Martin Coombs have proposed and seconded Steve.

“I am proud to represent the Labour Party but I intend to build a coalition of support which reaches out to all parts of our community. My priority is to improve local services whether the council or others provide them. I believe the Mayor should serve the whole borough – listening, involving people and then offering clear leadership.”

Tony Blair wishes Steve well as he starts
his campaign to become Lewisham's first directly elected mayor.
