Ah well, such is life.

Just pointing out that there are few gardens where everything is totally rosy.

'New Labour MP for Hyndburn Graham Jones said he believed there needed to be discussions on the candidates and for it to be an open contest.
However, he said he wanted to encourage the Exeter MP, former Culture Minister Ben Bradshaw, to come forward.'
East Lancashire Labour MPs undecided on leader choice (From This Is Lancashire)

Read it here first, and in the press the week after.

Good old Accy Web.

Any chance Bradshaw might be nominated?

Heard any whispers in the corridors of power this week, Graham?

Seem to remember when President Blair was elected, Labour Party members and Trade union members, had voting forms, on which you had to select 2 candidates, why is this not the case now?

by the way i never voted fer blair then, even though he was recomended by the union big boys.

Well, the other candidates were Beckett and Prescott. I can't see you voting for Beckett, but I can certainly see you voting for a man who likes a punch up.

Well I heard the best solution of the lot last night on TV, they should go for a co-ilition, Ed Balls and Ed Miliband, using the premise that two Ed's are better than one

Blimey, it's like the lineup for the summer season, on Blackpool Pier.

Burly Chassis, the nation's number one licky-likey.

Head the Ball, world Keepy Uppy champion.

The Amazing Memory Man, who'll take one for the team, before divulging amazing facts and figures.

...and The Milliband Siamese Twins, sharing only one leg to stand on, but still capable of making a great song and dance out of nothing.

I think I'll go to Bognor.
