Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection
Blimey.
I only checked on their site yesterday.
Looks like someone's had their hat thrown back out of the ring.
So Cllr. Storey's the only local candidate.
Well blow me.
Wonder if certain people will be tearing up their membership cards?

Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection
Perhaps all the other candidates will join AW, to say hello, and let us get to know them.

They probably don't know where it is, we really should rebrand ourselves with a nice new catchy name.
Has anyone got any idea for a new name for Hyndburn?
