Passing through the Richmond area the other day I noticed the election signs for Zac Goldsmith MP which told us he was " Standing Up For Richmond" etc.

I just wondered in what way he was standing up for the area and what hardships in that extremely wealthy borough of London he was fighting against.

I found it hard to imagine how difficult it is to survive the austerity which the residents there toil under and struggled to envisage the residents visiting their local food bank.

Just what does this MP actually do and what serious difficulties is his constituency facing and what struggles does he forecast in the coming days after the election.

It is utterly laughable to portray this young man as anything other than one more superfluous individual who stands for nothing more than the expected norm of a Tory government.
