Brian Coleman is a Conservative politician.
In 2000 he was one of the were the first LGBT people to be elected to the London Assembly. He was subsequently appointed Chair of the London Fire and Emergency Authority.
In 2009 he was listed at number 39 in the Pink News list of 50 most powerful gay, lesbian and bisexual people in British politics. The citation said:
- "The cab bills, the “bling bling” chain of office, the outrageous claims about former PM Ted Heath – Brian Coleman is, as the saying goes, a “colourful” character. In June last year he accepted an honorary degree from Middlesex University. They overlooked the fact he had branded the institution “crap” in 2004."[1]
