Constituency : Streatham 2010-19 ( Labour ) 2019 ( Change UK ), 2019
Chuka became the Liberal Democrats' newest MP in June this year having abandoned the Change UK project following the European elections.
Chuka is the son of a Nigerian businessman and an Anglo-Irish solicitor. He was educated at St Dunstan's College and the University of Manchester. He was a chorister at Southwark Carhedral. He became a solicitor specialising in employment law. He also dabbled in political journalism and joined the Compass group. He backed John Cruddas for the Labour leadership in 2007. He was elected for Streatham in 2010. Chuka supported the Blue Labour movement towards more conservative stands on international and social issues. He was a member of Labour Friends of Israel. He nominated Ed Miliband for the leadership and became his PPS. After a good performance on the Treasury Select Committee he was promoted to Shadow Business Secretary opposing Vince Cable who was a good friend in private. He announced his intention to run for the leadership after the 2015 election but withdrew three days later and backed Liz Kendall. He resigned from the shadow cabinet on Jeremy Corbyn's election. In 2017 he opposed the idea of a second referendum. By 2018 he had changed his mind and attended the launch of the People's Vote campaign. He then became chairman of a new centrist think tank Progressive Centre UK. In February 2019, he was the most prominent of seven Labour MPs who left the party to form Change UK .
Change UK believed that the Liberal Democrats were weak and ripe for a takeover. After the local election results, this analysis was proven hopelessly flawed and the European elections left their aspirations in shreds. Chuka and five other MPs left the party and eight days later he joined the Liberal Democrats admitting his previous strategy of setting up a new party was a fundamental misjudgement. He said he had massively underestimated the challenge of getting a new party off the ground.
Chuka was appointed the party's Treasury spokesman within days of his move.
He is now 40.
And that's it for now. Hopefully I'll have some more posts to write in the near future.
Update : Chukka stood for Cities Of London and Westminster in the 2019 election, coming second and adding nearly 20% to The LD vote. He now works for the investment bank JPMorganChase.
