As candidate for Hampstead Town by-election I had to run the gauntlet to observe the vote and obtain the count figures for the hour.
I was first interviewed by Griff Witte from The Washington Post, which came as a surprise especially as our local Camden New Journal and Ham & Ham did not interview the local candidates this election. But hey if the Americans are interested thats cool with me.
Later in the afternoon we had a TV crew from Canadian TV (CTV) no less doing a very professional job. I was then astonished when a large contingent of observers from Washington came over to get the official tour with the Polling Station officer giving an explanation of how it all works here in the UK!
Being a professional photographer myself I had quick words with the Sunday Times freelance Julian Andrews covering the proceedings just getting into my shot above!
Well thats it from my local Keats Community Library.
