Gisela Stuart

My Experience

Gisela Stuart has been the Labour MP for Birmingham Edgbaston which covers the wards of Bartley Green, Edgbaston, Harborne and Quinton since 1997. An effective campaigner, she’s as happy exposing the flaws of the European Union as she is the council and what’s more – she gets the job done.
