"Diane Abbott seems to be generally enamoured by Stoke Newington Church Street, but that really isn’t surprising considering she has been the Member of Parliament for Hackney North and Stoke Newington since 1987. Rudie’s, which serves Jamaican food, in Stokey has apparently been her favourite since it opened, where rum and coke is the drink of her choice. That is when M&S Mojitos don’t make the cut. She also occasionally frequents Peppers & Spice in Islington when she wants a West Indian takeaway of jerk chicken, rice and peas." - Adam Coghlan, Apoorva Sripathi
