15 September - Bexley in Westminster
In the 15 years since the first Bonkers blog page was published, (15th September
2009, this is number 7,206) Bexley has had five former Councillors elected to
Parliament. Teresa Pearce, Abena Opong-Asare and Daniel Francis for Labour and
Gareth Bacon and Louie French for the Conservatives to which one might add
Teresa O’Neill placed in the Lords by her good friend Boris Johnson.
Rather more have had jobs in Parliament, among them, Joe Ferreira, Sally Hinkley,
Cheryl Bacon, Frazer Brooks, David Leaf, Cameron Smith,
Adam Wildman and the most recent recruit, Nicola Taylor.
Nicola
Taylor working for suspended Labour MP Apsana Begum looks like a match made in Heaven to me.
