Ah well, it's back to tradition, she's working along the lines of good old 'Lobby lud', in reverse.

If you see her walking the street's of Hyndburn all you have to do is approach her, (with a current Conservative Manifesto), to claim your right to vote anyway you choose, (unless of course you happen to be a member of the party).

Anonymous employees of the newspaper would visit seaside resorts. The newspaper would print details of the town, a description of the appearance of that day's planted "Lobby Lud", and a particular pass phrase. Anyone carrying a copy of the newspaper could challenge "Lobby Lud" with the appropriate phrase, and receive the sum of five pounds. This was then a handsome amount of money, equivalent to more than £220 in 2008 pounds[1].

No, but a few nights ago had a visit from GJ - 'on the knock'. Have not met him before - seems a down to earth chap. Topics discussed , in no particular order, banks, BA strike, MP's expenses, local Tories, taxes, Cameron/Osborne, public sector..... but no sign of the opposition yet :)

at least not in my area

A wannabe M.P. from Lytham
said "I've tried to get along with'em,
I've been to their Mills
And tramped up their hills
But we don't seem to have the same rhythm" :D

Oh, perlease Mr. Vatican Pope can we have a decision on this one?

Is Rhythm exclusive to you red necks or can we all have a go?

Please don't try to ex-communicate me, I'm on Virgin broadband, that must be you're favourite network!

Thank you.

So you'll now publicly admit that there was one, and what he told me...and us, was correct, regarding the plan for someone who wasn't selected as a candidate, to stand independently.

Dead and hung out's a bit much though, don't you think?

Poor Moley.

With Conservative friends like that, I'd hate to see what you'd do to your enemies.

Oh dear.

Then I think there might have been the biggest miscarriage of justice since the execution of Derek Bentley.
