Georgia Gould selected for Camden seat

27 May 2009
The 23-year-old daughter of Tony Blair's favourite pollster Philip Gould has been chosen to fight the marginal ward of Kentish Town in next year's local elections.
This month, Ms Gould came third in the race for the safe Labour seat of Erith and Thamesmead. She told the Standard last week that she felt she was a victim of smears in the campaign for the parliamentary constituency.
A former pupil at Camden School for Girls, allies point out that her selection for the Kentish Town ward means she is finally the "local candidate".
Ms Gould, who was accused of being too privileged and too inexperienced to become an MP, will become one of Labour's youngest councillors if she wins.
