PPC update: Birmingham Hodge Hill

Colin RossIt seems the last PPC update was written while Colin Ross was still updating his site, so we missed the selection of our first BME candidate in the current round – in Birmingham Hodge Hill.

Congratulations to Cllr Tariq Khan, who has been selected for this “moving forward” status seat. As Colin says “At the May 2005 General Election Birmingham Hodge Hill saw a massive swing from Labour of 18.3%, and should be regarded as one of the seats the Liberal Democrats should pick up from Labour at the next election, particularly as the boundary changes are favourable to the Liberal Democrats.”

    Interesting – not a single comment on this or the thread for party officiers. You Lib Dems seem to be more interested in bashing Conservatives. So much for wanting to end “yahboo politics”.
