My
Story

My name is Sarah Sackman and I’m asking for your support to be your next MP.

 

I was born and raised here, playing with my sisters in Golders Hill Park and taking trips to the Phoenix Cinema. My childhood taught me my values – fairness, taking responsibility, looking out for your neighbour.

Growing up, I learned what a community can be at its best. But now after 13 years of Tory rule, our community and our country are in crisis.

In that time, things have gone backwards. Whether it’s the rising cost of living, rocketing NHS waiting lists, crumbling schools or the growing fear of crime – a tired and divisive Tory party has mismanaged the economy and diminished our nation’s standing. Britain deserves so much better.

I’ve built my career fighting for our community, whether in court as a barrister or at the grassroots level as a local campaigner. I helped save Friern Barnet Library, restored services for disabled children in our area and stood up for residents when their homes and neighbourhoods were under threat.

We need change more than ever.

As the local elections in 2022 showed, Labour is the only party in Finchley and Golders Green that can beat the Conservatives and deliver the change we need – to fix our economy, rebuild public services, improve safety and tackle the climate crisis.

As your MP, I will always put your priorities first. I’ll listen to you about what matters most and roll up my sleeves to deliver change. So please get in touch through this website or email me at [email protected].

I want a brighter, more hopeful future for my children and for all of us. Together, with your support, we can make it happen.
