Delighted to be the @LibDems candidate for Kensington for the next GE. The community deserves better than @Conservatives pursuing a reckless hard Brexit & out of touch with modern Britain & Corbyn’s @UKLabour & their assault on property rights & pensions https://t.co/0f0N7au4bf

Very interesting choice of seat for Gyimah – Labour won it last time with a minuscule 20 seat majority over the Tories, and the Lib Dems way behind both of them.
This selection shows a serious desire for the Lib Dems to go for it, which is great in many ways.
But it does also bring a fear that the Tories could win Kensington by accident.
I do hope Sam wins though!
What happened to the lady who was busy campaigning as the candidate last week?
