A former MP called the selection of Torsten Bell and Alex Barros-Curtis an ‘insult to Wales’.
A former Labour MP is among those expressing anger as a think tank boss and a former Starmer aide are selected as Welsh Labour candidates in an “insult to Wales”.
Think tank chief and former Labour aide Torsten Bell has been selected as Welsh Labour’s parliamentary candidate for Swansea West, while executive director of legal affairs for the Labour Party, Alex Barros-Curtis, was selected for Cardiff West.Beth Winter was the former Welsh Labour MP for Cynon Valley, a constituency that no longer exists following Boundary Commission changes.
“The imposition of candidates in Cardiff West & Swansea West cuts local members out of the process. It is an insult to Party members, an insult to Wales, and an affront to democracy.” Mr Bell is the chief executive of economic think tank the Resolution Foundation, and according to their website he is currently “on leave”.
