Satnam, Parmjit and Andrew in conversation with a member of the womens group "For Hounslow's Sikh community the Gurdwaras are an important place of worship and a wonderful heart to their community.

"It is clear from the conversations we have had that the issues that matter to Liberal Democrats: the cost of tuition fees, the war in Iraq, unfair council tax and the need to improve preventative healthcare, also resonate with many Sikhs."
