The Tottenham and Wood Green Independent has asked each parliamentary candidate to list five reasons why they should become an MP at the General Election on May 7.

Here the Peace Party's Tania Mahmood explains why you should vote for her.

1) The Peace Party is inclusive and diverse, reflecting the different ethnicities of Tottenham. The Peace Party seeks a society that is compassionate and respectful, that values cooperation over competition. Everyone would be involved in making the decisions that affect their lives as we value the opinions of all individuals.

2) The Peace Party holds non-radical views that aim to better society as a whole. For first time voters and those who are tired of the other parties I'd say that we're perfect. We value co-operation over competition, so in essence we'd work with anyone who has similar views to ours.

3) Everyone would have freedom and the opportunity to learn and to study, helping empower themselves and their communities.

4) Everyone would have meaningful work and an assured income without exploitation or oppression.

5) Everyone would have leisure time and easy access to facilities for creativity and recreation.
