Yeading 2026 candidates

Yeading's local team already working for you

Two dedicated Labour candidates bringing fresh ideas, community commitment, and a determination to put Yeading residents firmly first.

Labour candidate

Viral Desai

Viral Desai is a proud resident of Yeading and a committed community advocate. With a background in business, Viral has a sharp understanding of how to deliver value for money and hold institutions to account. He is passionate about making Yeading's streets safer, ensuring local housing goes to local families, and fighting back against the inappropriate HMOs changing the character of our neighbourhoods. He believes Hillingdon Council has failed residents for too long — and he's ready to change that.

With a deep understanding of the issues facing local families — from school quality to healthcare access to safety on our streets — Promila is determined to revitalise our town centre, improve local services, and fight the council waste that has let residents down. She stands for a Hillingdon where your council tax actually delivers results you can see.

Our priorities

What we're fighting for

Clear commitments from your Yeading Labour team — practical pledges rooted in what residents tell us matters most.

Safer Streets for Our Community

Make everyone feel safe in Yeading. We will support measures to cut crime, tackle anti-social behaviour, and put more police on the streets — not behind social media screens. Zero tolerance for fly-tipping and disorder.

Local Housing for Local People

Put Yeading residents first on the housing list. Immediately challenge any further inappropriate HMO applications. Push for genuinely affordable homes so local families can get on the housing ladder — not be priced out by outside demand.

Fix Our Roads & Infrastructure

Repair the potholes. Secure regular and reliable bin collections. Improve parking enforcement. Enhance our local flood defences. Revitalise the town centre. The basics the current council has repeatedly failed to deliver.

Eliminate Council Waste

Stop rip-off charges from private contractors. Scrap four-day working week schemes. No to mad Net Zero vanity projects that cost millions. Redirect every pound of your council tax into front-line services — and bring genuine accountability back to Hillingdon.
