Boris ‘two jobs’ Johnson still an MP

On May 1st The Times reported that "Boris Johnson will remain an Oxfordshire MP for up to a year if he becomes Mayor of London"

This has not stopped Henley Liberal Democrats from selecting Stephen Kearney to be their candidate for the expected Henley-on-Thames by-election. Stephen Kearney, 49, is Chief Executive of an international development charity (Action to Regenerate Community Trust - www.regeneratetrust.com) that works in Africa and the UK.


And the Conservatives are getting worried that the delay might let the Liberal Democrats building up a head of steam.


Even the Official Monster Raving Loony Party have selected a candidate, Peter Owen a.k.a. Top Cat a.k.a. TC a.k.a. Bananaman has been selected as the prospective OMRLP candidate for the Henley by-election (if it happens). He is the deputy leader of the party, and got the largest Loony vote in the UK in the 1997 and 2001 general elections in Wokingham.
