Jill Fraser (UK politician)
- Jill Fraser (UK politician)
Jill Fraser is a British Liberal Democrat politician, and Mayor of the London Borough of Camden between 2006 and 2007.. She also represents Haverstock ward on the council, after taking the 60 year old Labour seat in a 2003 by-election.
Fraser was born in Essex, but has lived in Camden for most of her life. She founded the "West Kentish Town Tenants and Residents Association" and the "Queens Crescent Business Association" as well as acting as secretary to the "Chalk Farm Business Association" and chair to the original "Gospel Oak Regeneration Board" (GOTCHA). Her children were brought up in Camden, and she has been a Governor at Rhyl Primary School for 18 years. In her day job, she works in a local chip shop in her ward.
At the 2005 general election, Fraser stood against Frank Dobson in the Holborn and St Pancras parliamentary constituency, securing an 11% swing to the Liberal Democrats and almost doubling the Liberal Democrat vote. She was unsuccessful in her bid to re-contest the seat for the next United Kingdom general election, coming third out of four candidates for the Lib Dem nomination.
