"Strangely enough, for the first time ever, my/our votes counted- and a young woman of afro-carribean origin was elected in our Constituency. Looking forward to go and congratulate her in person."

When you come over to England to congratulate her is your constituency in Leicester by any chance the one won by Momentum candidate Claudia Webb who took over from the disgraced Labour MP Keith Vaz?
I can only conclude you no longer have a Second home in Market Harborough which was a Conservative win.
I honestly thought if one Leicester Constituency were to change hands it would have been Leicester East as the Momentum backed Claudia Webb /Chair of Labour's Disputes Panel who was parachuted in as a candidate did cause a but of a backlash. Her backing of Ken Livingstone over anti_semetic comment, the fact she was not liked by many in certain parts of the Indian community of Leicester East etc. could have turned out to be a Labour loss.
To be fair she obviously did win but other than winning for Labour I am of the opinion in time there could surface some tension given her history, I probably will be wrong.
