Dear Dame,
Early this morning, Labour's Emma Dent Coad lost Kensington to Felicity Buchan. This was not unexpected.
The leadership of the Labour Party has lost its way.
They surround themselves with Momentum supporters from outside and ignore local people causing further divisions in North Kensington.
Well, the price to pay for ignoring residents is losing their votes.
Residents living near Grenfell will now have to put up with a Labour group that not only refuses to serve on scrutiny committees but openly snubs and dismisses residents.
Some were surprised to see that Grenfell local bloggers This Is North Kensington who had criticised Labour's refusal to sit on committees were left outside the Town Hall in the cold and rain.
There was a visible far left Momentum presence and not many local residents supporting Labour in the Town Hall at the count.
Inside the Town Hall, some of the Momentum supporters showed themselves to be sore losers by aggressively shouting at other parties when they learned they had lost.
Refusing to listen to constructive criticism from your own supporters gets you nowhere, especially in politics.
Emma Dent Coad has her councillor job to go back to: the people living around Grenfell that EDC says she represents doesn't have much to look forward to.
Now Labour has so much extra time on their hands, perhaps some of them would care to explain why the far left candidate for the "Workers Revolutionary Party" in the picture, is wearing a red rosette?
If this is the way that Labour is going, they cannot blame the Lib Dems or anyone else for taking their votes and support.
Respectfully yours, my esteemed Dame,
