Robert Waller wrote

The inner-London seat of Yorkshire-born MP, Frank Dobson, might be better understood on the ground if it were called Camden Town, which lies at its heart. Extending from Holborn to Primrose Hill and Kentish Town, the seat embraces many culturally vibrant communities. There are significant Irish and Bangladeshi populations, as well as many students studying at London University, and pockets of an affluent and liberal demi-monde. Labour are sufficiently well ahead of the Conservatives that Frank Dobson has no worries.
