For the 2019 General Election, the Conservatives chose an excellent candidate for the seat of Leicester West in the shape of Amanda Wright, a county councillor. She had a mountain to climb as Labour MP Liz Kendall had a majority of over 11,000. Nevertheless, Amanda fought a great campaign and managed to reduce the Labour majority to just 4,000, a swing of nearly 9%. I was pleased to play a small role in this by helping to deliver Amanda's leaflets.
