New London MP tells how stammer left him unable as a child to say his own name at times

A new London MP has told how as a child he had a stammer which meant that some days he could not even say his own name.

Labour’s David Pinto-Duschinsky, who won Hendon from the Tories at the General Election by just 15 votes, the smallest majority in the country, told MPs in his maiden speech about his previous speaking challenges.
