Angela Pober quits Labour group
ANGELA Pober has quit the Camden Labour group, councillors have been told. More details in an exclusive report on the New Journal’s website. She has not referenced Jeremy Corbyn’s victory as a reason, instead raising concerns about the Save West Hampstead Library campaign. Cllr Pober is understood to be ready to stay on as an independent. It will not affect the balance of power at the Town Hall due to Labour’s large majority.
…and so it begins!

Excellent!
I hope that she does the proper thing and stands down – and perhaps contest a by-election.
The councillor obviously knows something about the campaign that the leaders of the party aren’t telling the public. The library will probably be closed or hours severely teduced regardless of all the campaigning but at least she has principles.
