Dear all,

Labour has taken back Ealing Council after 4 years of Conservative
rule. A massive swing back to Labour occurred with the following
results:

Overall result: Lab: 40 Con: 24 Lib Dem: 5

Furthermore, we are very pleased that Mr ARA ISKANDERIAN has been
elected as councillor on his first attempt. This is great news for the
Armenian Community in Ealing and we have no doubt that he will pursue
our cause within the council, in particular the issue of a permanent
monument being erected in Ealing commemorating the Armenian Genocide.

Also, we are pleased that Mr Stephen Pound has been re-elected as
MP for Ealing North with a massive 50.4% of the vote, increasing
his majority to 9,301. We would also like to congratulate Mr Bassam
Mahfouz who although did not get elected, had a great campaign and
lost only by a relatively small majority of 3,700 votes. I am sure
we will see him secure his seat next time around.

Best Regards
