Another LibDem Defection
Another former LibDem Parliamentary candidate Graeme Smith has defected, but this time it's to Labour. He stood in Loughborough at the last election and is 28 years old.
One former Tory MP, of 23 years standing, going the other way. Although I know of a number of less than prominent Tories we just don't go to the press about every one of them.
Spelling corrected! Yes it is true, it's in the Indy today. Stephen, come come. If you have councillor defect to you you make a song and dance about it. I think you protest a little too much...
You could at least spell his name properly!
ReplyDeleteIs this true - I can't find info about it elsewhere (not saying its not though!)

Iain, get real. If a councillor defects to the Lib Dems, it never makes the national press.
