Cambridge graduate to contest Leominster seat
8:00am Friday 12th March 2010 in
A CAMBRIDGE graduate will contest the Leominster constituency for the Labour party.
Neil Sabharwal, a 29-yearold economics graduate from South London, has been adopted by the constituency party.
He has worked at eBay as a financial analyst and later launched his own social enterprise company.
He is currently running a fair trade enterprise and an internet marketing company.
Mr Sabharwal, who was chosen as a Labour councillor for Lambeth in 2006, campaigns for small businesses and green enterprises.
He is a member of the Unite union and an adviser to organisations that help young people handle finances and develop business acumen.
“During these tough times, the government must safeguard vulnerable groups in north Herefordshire, and provide small, rural, local businesses the tools and freedom to get us out of the hole the banks in London have got us into,” said Mr Sabharwal.

he is quite right, we must keep Labour out, people are broken by them, the zest for life has gone, except for some of those on benefits who laugh in my face for trying to make a living by working.
