Remarks:
Finchley and Golders Green was a Labour/Conservative marginal seat that had the largest Jewish population of any parliamentary constituency in the UK. There were an estimated 23,000 Jews there eligible to vote in the general election on 12 December 2019. An additional point of Jewish interest was that the Liberal Democrat candidate for the general election was Luciana Berger, a former Labour MP (for Liverpool Wavertree) who had been the victim of anti-Semitic abuse and eventually resigned from the Labour Party.
