John Howson

Joined the Liberal Party when at university. Since then I have chaired 2 constituency parties; fought 5 parliamentary elections, and numerous local elections, and been a county councillor between 2013 and 2025 as either spokesperson or cabinet member for Children's Services in Oxfordshire. A Vice President of the LDEA, as well as a committee member of the PCA, I also write a regular blog on education: John Howson | Education and the numbers that affect what happens
