The supplied record identifies Christopher David Ward as a British Labour Party politician who has served as the Member of Parliament for Brighton Kemptown and Peacehaven since 2024. It does not identify him as the assemblymember for Assembly District 78.

Parliamentary Record

Ward was selected as Labour’s prospective parliamentary candidate for Brighton Kemptown and Peacehaven following Lloyd Russell-Moyle’s suspension from the Labour Party. He was appointed Parliamentary Secretary for the Cabinet Office in 2025.

Limits of the Record

The supplied material does not provide a history of Assembly District 78 or document legislation, votes, constituent work or policy initiatives by an Assembly District 78 representative. It therefore cannot support a profile of that district’s policymaker.

Closing Assessment

On the documented record, no assessment can be made of what an Assembly District 78 policymaker is known for or whose interests that policymaker serves. Such an assessment would require material identifying and documenting the representative of Assembly District 78.
