Tories winning on Black representation is an interesting article from Black Information Link assessing the Black and ethnic minority candidates being fielded by the parties and their likelihoods of getting a seat.

Labour MP's Diane Abbott, Keith Vaz, Mark Hendrick, Piara Khabra, Ashok Kumar, Khalid Mahmood and Mohammed Sarwar are all shoe-ins to be re-elected.
