Cllr James Small Edwards, Labour candidate for the London Assembly seat of West Central joined Concilio for the latest edition of our Better Places podcast.
Elected in 2022 as Labour won Westminster City Council for the first time, in the key swing ward of Bayswater, James is currently serving as WCC Deputy Cabinet Member for Planning. James was selected by Labour Party members to contest the marginal seat covering Westminster, Hammersmith & Fulham and RBKC.
Following an introduction and round-up of the last few months from Concilio’s Nathan Parsad-Wyatt and Luke Francis, Cllr Small-Edwards and Oscar Harman discuss his selection campaign and the planning and political challenges as we look ahead to the London-wide elections in May 2024.
