Will Ian Lewis shortly be eating a hat?

By | Fri 1st December 2006 - 6:18 pm

Who is Ian Lewis you may well think. Well, before today I didn’t know him either – but his dietary habits have suddenly got my interest.

And it’s all because of the infighting amongst Chester City Conservatives. As the local paper reports:

CONSERVATIVE members of Chester City Council have branded their own party’s parliamentary candidate an embarrassment … The decision to censure Mr Offer was backed unanimously by the 22 members of the 27-strong group who were present.

As for Ian Lewis and the eating of hats:

Last week, regional press officer Ian Lewis told The Chronicle ‘I will eat my hat’ if Mr Offer did not continue to be the candidate – but this week he backed off from this position when told The Chronicle had seen the letter.
