Hampstead & Kilburn CLP nominate Tessa Jowell and David Lammy for London Mayor

Hampstead and Kilburn Constituency Labour Party  tonight nominated Tessa Jowell and David Lammy as their Labour candidates for London Mayor.

This completes the nominations for the three Brent constituencies:

Tessa Jowell - Brent North and Hampstead & Kilburn
Sadiq Khan - Brent Central and Brent North
Diane Abbot - Brent Central
David Lammy - Hampstead & Kilburn

Interestingly, and perhaps marking the increasing distance of Brent's H&K wards from the rest of Brent Labour, of 100 or so individual members present at the H&K meeting, none spoke in favour of Sadiq Khan, the candidate of choice for many of the Brent Council Cabinet.

  1. Interesting. Tulip Siddiq is a former policy advisor to Tessa Jowell yet she has stated she is personally backing Sadiq Khan

    1. As a social climber she knows that Khans on the up (future leader) and Jowell is on the decline. Same reason she picked a neutral / unlikely person to support for leader to enable herself to support whoever wins.

  2. Mo Butt's slimy tentacles do not extend as far south as Hampstead, it seems.
