Keith Anthony Prince is a British Conservative Party politician and Member of the London Assembly for Havering and Redbridge since 2016.[1]
Prince served as a councillor in Havering from 1990 to 1994, representing Gidea Park ward, and then as a councillor in Redbridge Barkingingside Ward from 2003 until 2018, serving as leader of the council between 2009 and 2014,[1] in coalition with the Liberal Democrats after May 2010.[2]
In 2017, Prince was involved in a heated row with a fellow passenger on a train, on his daily commute to work on the Southeastern train service from Dartford to London.[3] The confrontation was filmed and received attention on social media and in print and broadcast media. Prince subsequently released a statement, stating that “I’d like to apologise to my fellow commuters for the disturbance our initial disagreement caused."[4]
