Emily Louise Tester
Liberal Democrats candidate for Old Kent Road
“In Emily's own words
“Emily made Bermondsey her home over three years ago, and now lives in the Pynfolds Estate as a private renter.”
“She joined the Liberal Democrats after a talk from Simon Hughes at her sixth form and was elected as a town councillor in her hometown in Sussex. Whilst she served as a councillor, she helped fight Conservative plans to close a local leisure centre.”
“Emily now works for a major London housing association, consulting residents on estate regeneration.”
