Contradictory news from Facebook about the state of Lembit Opik’s campaign to become the Liberal Democrat candidate for London Mayor. The number of fans of his campaign page is now up to 178.

Slow day?
Lol Ian. You must have missed Iain Roberts post a couple of weeks ago about rain in Cheadle. Removed because of its utter pointlessness, I think.
He needs to get a move on if he is serious about standing.

Lembit for London are working hard behind the scenes and have another meet planned for Monday 6th September. We are organising meetings with the boroughs at present.
