Lindsey German
Lindsey Ann German〔("London candidates announced" ), ''Evening Standard'' (This is London), 14 May 2004〕 (born 1951) is an English left-wing political activist. A founding member and convenor of the British anti-war organisation Stop the War Coalition, she was formerly a member of the Socialist Workers Party, sitting on its central committee and editor of its publication, ''Socialist Review''.
She has twice stood as a left-wing candidate for Mayor of London, coming fifth in 2004, and as the Left List mayoral candidate in the May 2008 elections. In February 2010, following "increasing disenchantment" with the leadership, she resigned from the SWP, after 37 years membership.
