(Posted this originally in the Brexit thread, sorry about that!)

There was a theory that this was why he was not previously standing as an MP until Piers Morgan baited him at Question Time and he u-turned.

Will be interesting to see if anything comes out in the Sunday papers. I suspect it won't.

We got our postal voting form through the door this morning.

Filled it in so the TOH will be posting it tomorrow morning.

Does anyone else think that Ed Davey is trying to copy Boris Johnson with his silly antics, thinking well, if it worked for him...

I don't think copy him, thank goodness, but he's trying to get attention in a crowded market. Not convinced it's working but he's trying.

I hope you didn't frown too much when placing the X next to Labour! :D

The actual postal ballot forms don’t come out until next week, so no Xs anywhere yet. When it comes to it, the chance to unseat the Nat will more than compensate for any other discomfort. :D

The Tories campaign director has to take a leave of absence whilst the gambling commission looks into bets he placed on the timing of the election

This is unbelievable, rotten and corrupt to the core, the party needs dismantling and quite a few need a spell in jail

Just when one thinks it can't get worse for the government in this election campaign, it does.
