Why I've no chance of becoming the local MP, despite the all women shortlist
The only thing I wholeheartedly agree with in the leaflet from local Labour councillors and candidates which I have just delivered round my neighbourhood is the proposal that the Jubilee Library ought to open on Sundays. Otherwise, their statement of support for our MPs voting against Trident and voting against the invasion of Iraq and their cry of "our children's future is not a lottery" (no, of course our children's future should be based on our ability to manipulate a consistent and predictable set of rules, and by having the money to spend on moving house into a catchment area for a 'good' school. As for your chavvy children, well, sorry) all leave me cold, but I know, and they know, will play well with the local leftwing middle class vote. Still, it was good to get some outdoor exercise on a beautiful spring day.
