I have offered to pop along and interview them on that night, just incase they've all resigned by then.

I'm still waiting to see if my offer's taken up.

Should be fairly easy, there being only one local candidate.

Janet Storey should, in theory, have it in the bag, being a popular local lass.

Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection

How can the Tories complain about not having a local candidate if they don't pick Janet?

Does seem odd.

You'd think with all the fuss the local lass would walk it.

Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection

By the way they are behaving by resigning and such like, you have to wonder if they want to win ;)

Are you suggesting they're writing off this one, in order to have leverage next time, when arguing that they should be able to decide who's on their candidate list?

Isn't that like shooting yourself in the foot, when there's a good chance that it's the other foot that has gangrene?

They could end up legless.

Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection

The meeting is in the Con club so I am sure they will be leg less :D

Your scenario is very interesting, do you think they could be playing that game :rolleyes::D

You're behind the times.

You mean the 'Oswaldtwistle Social Club'.

The Conservative Club is history.
