The Labour candidate did not attend last night's hustings in Lanchester. The derision was audible, and I repeat that this was in Lanchester, darling. On the grounds cited, then he could never hold surgeries, either. Has he any intention of doing so? If so, how, in view of the reasons that he had already given for not attending hustings?
The SDP receives surprisingly little coverage considering that one of its candidates is, unless I am very much mistaken, presently unique in having three Fleet Street columns. But while its candidate here had a lot of good ideas, he had at least one barking mad one, and he just did not come across as a credible Member of Parliament. The Green was even more like that. Clearly a nice man. Clearly not a potential MP.
The Liberal Democrat was very switched on and he had dressed the part, but there are just too many problems with his party. Already heavily involved in community campaigns such as the one against Burnhope solar farm (no, that is not a joke), Chris Bradburn of the Workers Party of Britain will not be going away no matter what the outcome. He deserves your vote. He will certainly be getting mine.
Two Labour councillors have resigned from the party, you probably know them.
ReplyDeleteNow will they endorse Chris?
