Counselor Bassam Mahfouz , a Christian from Beirut.
Standing for Ealing & Acton.
He has promised to work to recognise the Genocide and is currently working
with the Armenian Church to install a Genocide Monument in Ealing.

Andrew Drake from Liberal Democrats also attended a CAIA Easter event and is
standing for Chiswick, Brentford, Isleworth, Osterley & Hounslow.
