Election fever hits Leeds on 18 February, one of us hard working Lib Dems, has fallen, so nominations were made for a replacement.
The only candidate I personally know is the Labour one, Gerry Harper. I never liked him, and Labour have some great local members in hyde park, like Mina Kanyek who work hard in the cooperative community.
Gerry Harper works for Fabian Hamilton MP, our most expensive Leeds MP, according to reports. I feel that the idea that a career structure dominates the choice of main party candidates is debatable.
The AGS candidate has withdrawn, and there is no far right opportunity, there is an Independent, but one strange fact eludes me!
The Liberal Democrat Candidate lives in Weetwood, Mick Taylor, 65 Tinshill Lane, according to the council statement online tonight.
So how come I have never met him, and where do these people come from? possibly because us Liberal Democrats have been taken over by the zygons?
I spent a happy childhood in Hyde Park and Woodhouse Area. So how do those lucky people get represented, by themselves?
Other Candidates;-
Adele Beeston - Independent LS6 4AW
Mark Foren - Green Party LS16 5NE
Yasser Khalid - Conservative LS28 8ER
I might walk round to see out Lib Dem hopeful Mick Taylor, to see if he can help normal people to get nominations for these jobs, from party members, as opposed to whatever the system is?
I just looked Mick Taylor up and phoned him, seems interested in local issues? Mentioned internet reports of john prescott being in town, so I will look forward to an interesting result?
