So let's get this straight... two sitting black councillors are deselected in Croydon. The Party's bureaucrats enforce a mandatory shortlist... and the result is KEIR STARMER'S MID-20s NIECE gets picked to stand for the 2nd safest ward?
She might be very smart and capable, and might eventually be a credit to the role, but this sort of mad top-down management invites scepticism. If I was a local resident, I'd be pretty miffed.
