The main opposition party in Britain, the Conservatives, have their first black member of parliament following the general election on Thursday. He’s Adam Afriyie, a wealthy businessman whose father came from Ghana. Mr Afriyie won the safe Conservative seat of Windsor with a large majority. He says his first priority will be local issues such as protecting the environment, but he also hopes to be able to restore what he calls a sense of pride in being British.
