Islington Liberal Democrats have picked David Kelly as LibDem candidate in Holloway by-election in May https://www.facebook.com/VoteDavidKelly 





Liberal Democrats have picked David Kelly as their candidate in the Holloway by-election on Thursday 3rd May 2012.

David stood for the Lib Dems in Holloway ward in May 2010. The Liberal Democrats scored double the Tory vote and the Greens were pushed into fourth place. He was the highest polling of the three LibDem candidates in 2010.

David has a proven track record as a local campaigner and is a former secretary of the Market Estate Tenants’ & Residents’ Association, working alongside other residents in the area to secure the total regeneration of their estate and was also a tenant member of the Housing Association board.

David works in the charity sector currently for a large disability charity based in Kings Cross and previously for charities working with homeless people. He is a keen environmental campaigner, helped set up the Friends of Cally Park and was a member of the Islington Environmental Forum. He is a keen cyclist, a member of the London Cycling Campaign, and recently appointed a London Ambassador for the Olympic Games.

Islington Liberal Democrat leader, councillor Terry Stacy, said:
“David would make an excellent local champion. Having helped so many local residents in the past, living in the heart of Holloway ward, nobody knows the issues and the people better than David.”
“This by-election is a straight fight between Labour and the LibDems. David secured more than double the votes of his nearest Tory challenger in May 2010."
“With Labour running the council with such a large majority, local residents need a councillor who is committed to them and the local area."

Ben Kinsella, 16, the younger brother of actress Brooke Kinsella, 24, died after being knifed in York Way shortly after 2am on Sunday.

After the assault, Ben was taken to The Whittington Hospital in Magdala Avenue, Archway - but could not be saved.

The killers of Ben Kinsella were gangster wannabes * * By Ryan Parry 12/06/2009 (L-R) Alleyne, Braithwaite and Kika (Pic:Met Police) (L-R) Alleyne, Braithwaite and Kika (Pic:Met Police) As members of the Market Massiv' gang, Michael Alleyne, Jade Braithwaite and Juress Kika demanded respect and loyalty. They fancied themselves as gangsters but in reality they were drugdealing cowards, armed with guns and knives, who needed ferocious Staffordshire bull terriers for protection. After gang leader Alleyne, his deputy Braithwaite and the lowly Kika were convicted of Ben Kinsella's murder, a source close to the group - too scared to reveal his identity - broke ranks to speak to the Mirror. He said: "They thought they were real bad boys walking round with their Staffs and a knife in their pocket. Mikey (Alleyne) had two Staffs and thought he was untouchable. This was his manor, no one could come down here and f*** with it. "They worked in twos for protection and they...
