The top parliamentary blogger Guido Fawkes (motto: "the only person ever to enter Parliament with an honest intention, namely, to blow it up") has written a supportive piece this weekend about what we're doing down here!
It gave me a lift because punching away at a big monolith like the Tory party, sometimes you just don't know if you're getting anywhere or anyone in the big wide world even notices. This is Leominster, Neverheardofitshire, after all!
Some other good news: Benson Ferrari, a Young Conservative candidate who stood against me in the Leo Council election in 2009 (the one that got "accidentally cancelled" after Bill Wiggin wrote a secret email to Herefordshire Returning Officer asking him to kick me out) has repented.
He's standing as an Independent in the other Leo Ward to my one, citing "failure to deal with the serious expenses issue" as his reason for defecting from North Herefordshire Tory Association. Local newspaper story here
