BORIS Johnson has got behind the new Tory candidate for Dudley North Les Jones, saying he would make a “superb MP”.
Councillor Jones met with the Mayor of London this morning (Thursday) after it was announced he was to replace Afzal Amin in a bid to win the marginal seat.
Their meeting was captured on camera, with Boris praising the former leader of Dudley Council, who he said had “massive experience” of Dudley North.
Had the pleasure of meeting up with Boris Johnson this morning. You'll see I managed to dominate the conversation (not!). Now I know exactly why people love him..........
