London South CF Campaign In Richmond
London South Campaign Day: Richmond
London South activists joined Zac Goldsmith for a campaign day in Richmond, a key target seat for the Conservatives. The top team of activists helped Zac and his team deliver campaign literature to hundreds of homes in the Richmond area. Afterwards, the team retired to the pub for beer, burgers and a well deserved rest to hear a speech from Zac on how the campaign is going.
