Shaun Bailey: The Movie
Shaun Bailey is the Conservative Candidate for Hammersmith & Shepherds Bush, a key marginal seat. He's made this excellent video, which shows what an excellent local candidate he is. It's a bit too long for my liking - I wonder how many people will sit down for eight and a half minutes and watch it to the end, but it's a superbly produced video and he comes across as a man who genuinely cares about the area he hopes to represent.
Shaun has also just joined Twitter. You can follow him HERE.
I watched halfway until I got bored.
ReplyDeleteIt did strike me as more of a pitch to become mayor of Hammersmith than its MP.
I know candidates in marginals have to focus on local issues in order to appeal to the electorate, but he came across as slightly parochial.
Respec bro.
ReplyDeleteU was wikkid on rayjo 4 on chewsday.
I can see all the grannies running for cover when he appears at their front door because they will think he is a local mugger...
ReplyDeleteIt needed editing as it was far too long for what it actually said.
ReplyDeleteGood production values and Shaun Bailey came over very well, as he did on Radio 4 this week.
The passion is self evident. Hope he does well but in my heart I can see him going all the way. Fair play.
ReplyDeleteGreat video. Maybe a bit long but that's not going to prevent people from voting for him. Shaun is going to be great for Hammersmith. The sooner Andrew Slaughter is out of there the better.
