Further to yesterday's post on Simon Jones seeking selection as Tory candidate for Hornchurch and Upminster
This from Conservative Home...
Cllr Julia Dockerill... won [last nights] selection in Hornchurch and Upminster by an outright majority on the first ballot.
Back to business as usual in the DfT SpAds office...
According to Guido, Simon Jones is on the Tory shortlist to contest the Hornchurch and Upminster seat.
Jones is Chris Grayling's special adviser. He is in a three-way for the Conservative candidate nomination against Mark Field’s parliamentary researcher Julia Dorkerill and former Cameron adviser Shaun Bailey.
Hornchurch and Upminster was held in the 2015 election by Angela Watkinson for the Tories with a 13,000 majority. Watkinson is standing down as MP for health reasons.
This from Guido...
Policy wonk Sian Jones has gone with Hammond, and there was talk of Paul Stephenson, Hammond’s media SpAd going across too, but he has gone back to is old opposition boss – Andrew Lansley.
And according to Guido - "Justine Greening at Transport is hiring…"
This from Pastor Redwonn...
What a splendid opening last Tuesday of the new East London line.
But just how quickly did operator London Overground record its first SPAD on the new railway?
Five minutes?
Five hours?
Five days?
Perhaps we should be told?
