Interview with Keir Starmer: Parliamentary candidate for the Labour Party in Holborn and St Pancras
There’s a new Labour Candidate in Town. After more than thirty years as MP for Holborn and St Pancras, Frank Dobson is standing down and the party has chosen Sir Keir Starmer to fight the seat. He’s a Barrister, specialising in Human Rights issues and was Director of Public Prosecutions for five years before leaving the post in 2013. Camden Community Radio caught up with him at Labour’s local office where he spoke about tackling the constituency’s problems, lowering the voting age and how he doesn’t like being called SIR Keir – “It’s Keir” he insists. Our reporter, Ann Carroll, began by asking him what he feels he brings to Camden.
The full list of candidates is:
Natalie Bennett, Green Party
Will Blair, Conservative Party
Jill Fraser, Liberal Democrat Party
Vanessa Helen Hudson, Animal Welfare Party
Shane O’Donnell, Cannabis is Safer than Alcohol
David O’Sullivan, Socialist Equality Party
Maxine Spencer, UK Independence Party
Keir Starmer, Labour Party
