It has become apparent that Ealing Labour Councillor Ben Wesson, who was only elected in May 2022, wants to become an MP.

On his twitter account (https://twitter.com/benwesson) you can see that he now admits living in Northampton, ignoring his duties serving the residents of Ealing.

Liberal Democrat Leader of the Opposition Councillor Gary Malcolm said: "Councillor Ben Wesson needs to make his mind up whether he lives in Northampton or Ealing. Pitshanger residents deserve to be represented by councillors who live locally not fifty miles away."
