Paul Lorber (born 3rd September 1955) is a British Liberal Democrat Politician. Together with Robert Wharton and Chandubhai Patel he represents Sudbury ward in the London Borough of Brent, and is the Leader of Brent Council.
Lorber arrived in Britain as a refugee from Czechoslovakia in 1968, and was educated in Brighton and Kilburn Secondary High School, North London. He then attended Manchester University, graduating with a BA honours degree in 1976, before working as an auditor and tax consultant for firms such as Robson Rhodes, Texaco Ltd and Wembley Plc.
In 1982 Lorber was elected to Brent Council, and has been reelected at every local election since. In 1992, 1997 and 2001 he stood for election to parliament in the Brent North constituency.
