Nigel Waterson, the Conservative MP for Eastbourne who is struggling to hold his seat in the face of Stephen Lloyd’s challenge, has suffered a further blow today.
Only a few days ago the former Tory MP Ernle Money said he would be voting Lib Dem in Eastbourne, saying Nigel Waterson “has been a rotten MP and on numerous occasions, he has jumped onto any passing bandwagon and taken up causes after they have already been dealt with by others.”
Now the former chair of the local Conservative Association has accused Nigel Waterson of negative campaigning and revealed that he had told his own campaign team that he was losing the seat.

I turned to Nigel Waterson for his valuable help when I was victimised & persecuted by numerous people. I hired a occupational therapist employed privately by me through the Royal College of Occupational Therapists London who prove without doubt that I had been victimised persecuted with intent by members of the social services & wealden district social services & Eastbourne Borough Council staff. I have now lived at 5 Biscay Ave Kings Park since Oct 13th 2006 after their was threat of losing my bungalow. This was the first time I had lived alone since various attacks in the past which link’s to other people who threatend my life if I spoke out. Why is it Nigel Waterson you have not replied to any of my emails. I was known as B.I.Sanders then. I was offered £20,000 with the hope of getting my bungalow finnished, then someone else told lies.
