Quote of the day 19th August 2023

"WEALD OF KENT: despite all the Conservatives' troubles, the party had a stronger shortlist today - 

Aphra Brandreth, 

Lincoln Jopp, 

Katie Lam 

& Scott Pattenden - 

than any I can recall in the 152 Labour selections in this round so far."

(Michael Crick, a journalist who speaks as he finds and does not hesitate to savage any of the political parties when he thinks it appropriate, commenting on his "Tomorrow's MPs" Twitter account about the current round of selections.

Congratulations to Katie Lam who won the vote and was adopted as the Conservative candidate for Weald of Kent.)
