Lembit does an impression of the Angel of the North

By Caron Lindsay | Wed 8th February 2012 - 4:25 pm

Seriously, he does.

And he doesn’t care what anyone thinks, either, as he said to Sky News yesterday.

Thing is, as we all watch the uncomfortably inappropriate close ups, his dad dancing and numerous other cringeworthy snippets, we are compelled to listen to what is actually quite a good song by the Good Suns. A very clever marketing ploy, I think.

Enjoy, or whatever. Just don’t charge the Voice for any post traumatic stress counselling you might need.

Is it me or is he slowly turning into Rory Bremner?

While Lembit is maintaining a high media profile, is he doing anything inside the party to regain respect and support, either from the local party in Montgomeryshire or elsewhere, for his next bid to get selected as a candidate for something? Or will he inevitably lose out and blame it on whispering campaigns and conspiracy theories against him?

FWIW, I think Lembit is a good person, and has a formidable liberal intellect on the increasingly rare occasions when he puts his mind to things. But there’s no way I’d vote for him in a selection.
