My son visited me the other day and I told him I wasn't impressed with our MP as, unlike Greg Pope, he invites contact from constituents but doesn't bother to respond to concerns outlined in emails. He and my son share the same birth year, thus they did meet occasionaly and said son thinks GJ is a very upright honest and caring man.
I've never met the man but, judging from his entry in Wikipedia, it seems to me that he has had a lot of help along the way.
After seeing the many spelling mistakes and grammatical errors on his website I'm surprised he specialised in desk top publishing. Here's his bold statement yesterday
<<New taxi licensing regualtions will undermine public safety in Hyndburn.>>
