Cllr Alex Paterson (Rochester West)
Councillor for Rochester West
Alex took his seat in March 2018 after the resignation of Kelly Tolhurst MP, winning the resulting by-election with a 26.5% increase in Labour’s share of the vote. He first got involved in local campaigning in 2009 when he and other parents overturned the Tory-run council’s decision to close a Rochester school. Alex is a journalist by trade and worked for the Daily Mirror and its sister titles for two decades. He is currently Senior Communications Officer for the Scottish Labour MPs at Westminster, and has a wife and two children.
