Former prime minister Boris Johnson has been re-selected as the Conservative candidate in his Uxbridge and South Ruislip constituency.
It comes following speculation that he might seek out a safer seat, ahead of the next general election. A spokesman said: “I can confirm Boris Johnson has been reselected as the Conservative candidate in Uxbridge and South Ruislip.”
While Johnson holds a 7,210 vote majority, his seat is seen as a target for Labour at the next election. Johnson polled 25,351 votes in 2019, while Labour’s Ali Milani was a clear second with 18,141.
