Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection
It's a good job it's not the nineteen forties.
Trust no one.
I don't.

There was a cabal, at which plans were hatched for a certain someone to stand in the General Election, and not as the offical Conservative candidate.
I can't remember all the exact details, as I was laughing so much at the time, but I do remember mention of a deadline of March the 5th being missed, which thwarted the secret plans.
Like I said, I ain't fussy about who I befriend, and would never discount someone because of their political leanings.
Perhaps it's something to do with being Master Bun, the baker's son, and being brought to want to have your fingers in as many pies as possible.

If that certain some one wanted to sand as independent at the General election there is nothing on earth to stop him, that's all I'm saying. As for being in the dark, I've been there for 9 years since I stepped down from all activities after the 2001 GE, now I just pick up odds and sods when I see people, like Ken Hargreaves and Brian Walmsley, apart from that I've much more serious things to deal with, to which politics come a very poor second

If you catch the poor little mole, ask it about the date March the 5th.

Your mention of a 'mole being isolated as you write', acknowledges it's existence, which certainly adds credence to my posts about desparate, behind the scenes skullduggery.
Although personally I wasn't looking for vindication, that was nice of you.
No comment about the rumoured de-selections, or will we have to wait and see what's going to happen?

Re: Conservative Parliamentary Selection
I do hope there is someone there on Saturday, to interview the candidates that are on the list that was imposed on the local Conservative party.
As stated earlier, I'd be more than willing to pop along and do it, if you can't muster enough people.
In the interest of democracy, it would be nice to see the party put up at least a bit of a fight.

Phew.
That means there'll be at least someone there.
Did you chat about de-selections yesterday?

I hope the poor little critter isn't hung up on barbed wire, after being killed, as farmers do.
I'd better keep an eye on the local press, to see if any crime's been committed against dear old Moley.

Jaysay's mention of the mole being 'dealt with as he wrote', should be seen as further evidence of poor little Moley's existence.

Or, you are a big tease and someone has just been blamed for something s/he did not do, which is even funnier
