Latest Seven Days Show podcast now online

Episode 26 of the Seven Days show is now online. Who would have thought that we would manage half a year of these weekly run through politics when we started?

This week we discuss Iain’s new LBC career; David Laws, his resignation, and what it means for the coalition; the recent appointments to the Lords; the election of Graham Brady MP to the 1922 committee; and of course what Iain would sing if he ever represented us in the Eurovision song contest. As usual a smattering of smut and good fun throughout the show. Thanks to all of you who have stuck by us!

Fat lady is taking to the stage

Someone (you know who you are) reminded me it aint over until the fat lady sings. Tomorrow she is taking to the stage. Polls open at 7:00am and hopefully enough has been done to convince people that not only should we send this shoddy Government packing, but a clear decisive result, namely a Conservative Government with a mandate to take the decisions is required.

I am more tired than the two times I have stood for Parliament myself. I have a pair of worn out trainers. I haven’t seen my home for a month. I have done all I can possibly do – but tomorrow there is still a little more to do. We need to ensure that everyone who is considering voting Conservative goes to the polling station and casts their vote. It really is the most important General Election of a Generation.

I turned 35 during this election and the party has never won a General Election since I have been able to vote. A sobering thought – and one that convinces me tomorrow every Tory needs to do all they can to get the result the country needs.

On that note I wish all my friends who are PPCs the best of luck.  I hope all your hard work brings you the result you deserve!

What parliamentary candidates would really like to say!

The public have been disgruntled with politics ever since the expenses scandal. They think everyone involved in politics are crooks, on the take, and so on.

What they don’t hear is the sacrifices made by candidates and indeed supporters in every party, because on the whole, these people believe (rightly or wrongly) that what they are doing will make a difference to local people and make the country better.

There is nothing more I like that a robust debate about political ideas. What gets my goat is people who whinge from the sidelines, moan that all candidates are the same, and even come out with phrases along the lines of it doesn’t matter who you vote for the Government always get it.

To those people I commend this article by Dominic Lawson to you!
