Steven Gee has been re-selected to stand for Wimbledon; see http://www.merton.lib-dems.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=66&Itemid=2
You won’t win in either seat. Best to get some “losing here” posters printed up…
You know, I think people like “It’s a two-horse race” fill a really useful social function: they make people remember why they hate the Tories.
You may well hate them – the Tories have a 23% lead over the Libs. Seems most of the country hates YOU!
Oooh, get you.
I think you’ll find having a voting preference doesn’t necessarily indicate that a person “hates” the other parties.
Oh, and by the way – according to the latest ICM poll on their website, it’s “only” 19% ;O)
Two-horse needs to brush up his history. In 1983, the then Liberal Party came within 500 votes of winning Penrith & The Border in a parliamentary byelection.
