Claudia Webbe is the former chairman of New Scotland Yard's Operation Trident Independent Advisory Group after pioneering its development in the mid-1990s. She is an elected councillor in the London Borough of Islington. She is related to the singer and musician Simon Webbe. == Advisor to Ken Livingstone == Webbe was an adviser to the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, (a member of his election campaign team in 2000 and 2004) arguably thus, the first black female full-time paid advisor to a directly elected mayor in the UK. Webbe spoke out in Livingstone's defence when on 24 February 2006, the Standards Board for England as decided by the Adjudication Panel for England, he was found guilty of bringing his office into disrepute and suspended from office for four weeks. The trigger for the action was when in February 2005, Livingstone likened an Evening Standard reporter to a Nazi concentration camp guard Webbe said of Livingstone at the time as published in ''The Guardian'': "I have known Ken for almost 20 years, having worked with him in numerous anti-racist organisations and campaigns including the Anti-Racist Alliance, the National Assembly Against Racism and whilst I was Director of Westminster Race Equality Council, he took up cases that I referred onto him for support. His history of work in the anti-racist movement is unquestionable." Livingstone launched an appeal and the decision was later quashed by the High Court when on 5 October, Justice Collins overturned the suspension, stating that the Adjudicating Panel had misdirected itself. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Claudia Webbe」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
