Local politico's may be interested to note that Labour’s national executive has given the go ahead to parliamentary selections in 26 marginal seats which the party lost last year.
The decision reverses an earlier decision and follows pressure from constituency parties eager to start campaigning and raising the profiles of candidates in Medway.
The seats chosen are all in southern England (outside London) and the Midlands.
Interesting to note that Chatham & Aylesford will now be engaging in an open selection.
Many campaigners visited the constituency at the last General Election and it is expected a number will be expressing an interest in the constituency, formerly regarded as one of the safer Labour areas in Kent.
That being said Medway Labour are independent minded. The previous MP was a Councillor in Chatham and the neighbouring Gillingham & Rainham MP, Paul Clark, was a former Councillor in Gillingham.
