Enough of this snoozefet.
Who has the most bang-able candidate in their constituancy?
Michelle Donelan is standing for the Conservatives here, against the current incumbent Duncan Hames (LibDem).Who has the most bang-able candidate in their constituancy?
Duncan's a good bloke and a good MP, but I can't vote on personality when som much is at stake - this is the only 'non-blue' constituency in Wiltshire.
Besides, Michelle has much better tits.
I'm in Welwyn Hatfield now, so our MP is Grant Shapps. I'm in two minds - not happy about many of the recent stories, but I've met him and he seems to be a really good local MP. The UKIP candidate has been invisible, and Labour... well, just not for me thanks.
The Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition candidate must be an optimist!
I used to be in Brent North, where the revolting Barry Gardiner is the proverbial donkey with a red rosette.

I would struggle with that.it's pretty clear he's a bear faced liar, and has no problem with lying for his own ends.
I have no doubt he can be charming, but I personally have zero time for somebody that's such a polished, blatant liar, how could you ever trust somebody like this to do the right thing?

How does that work?
It probably won't. But the libdem candidate is polling in 2nd place behind the SNP in Gordon, so are realistically the only challenge to Das Grosse Poombah.I'm doing a similar thing where I live, voting for the 2nd place candidate to try to prevent the SNP taking the seat.

Harpenden & Hitchin here.
Very safe Conservative seat held by Rt Hon Peter Lilley since 1997. To be fair, he is a top bloke - actually has experience of the private sector, one of only three MPs to vote against the Climate Change Act, has been vocal about the threats of mass immigration on our local infrastructure from day one, and is highly critical of national identity cards. The only downsides are he has become complacent and evidently bored of the process, and takes months to respond to communications.
Labour have but up Rachel Burgin - "I am actively involved with Christians on the Left". Thanks, but no thanks.
The Lib Dem Pauline Pearce caused uproar at the town hall hustings on Monday when she stood up and stated she was aghast that she was the only black face in the room...
Our UKIP candidate is John Stocker - all I know about him is he owns a construction company, has lived in the area for 30 years and is uncomfortable with women breast-feeding in public (although he respects it and is not against it).
Pretty uninspiring opposition to say the least.

I'm in the very marginal seat of Ashfield. The Lib Dems ran a close second to Labour last time.
The Lib Dem candidate was to have been Jason Zadrozny again, until the recent allegations of historic child abuse pissed on his chips.
He has also been accused of sending out "misleading" campaign leaflets which, despite his claims to the contrary, appear to have the local NHS endorsing him.
Todays leaflet, and we get lots of them, trumpets a local Lib Dem councillors success having a sign mended.
The encumbent MP, Labour's Gloria De Piero, will increase her slender majority IMHO.
