What do we lose if Cameron triumphs?
Mudhook has reminded us of What has Labour ever done for Cornwall? And Johann Hari reminds us of what is at stake over the next few days in his post What do we lose if we reject Labour?
A Clegg Cameron deal could sink Andrew George
As a Labour supporter who yesterday voted tactically for Andrew George at St Ives, I would not be best pleased if Mr Clegg decided to sustain a Cameron government. Looking ahead to a general election that might have to be called within the next year, I would be inclined to campaign for Labour supporters in St Ives to abandon Mr George and vote Labour. That would be very bad news for Mr George given his now not so healthy majority.
Vandalised Conservative billboards (2)
First sighting of vandalised Conservative billboards in Cornwall: outside Truro railway station a billboard depicting a grinning Gordon Brown has been amended with the addition of obscenities and an invitation to vote Lib Dem. Conservative PPC for St Ives Derek Thomas has acquired a moustache and goatee beard on a huge billboard on the road between St Ives and Penzance. Voter power!
Sunday Seven
The most popular post this week was Conservative Vandalised Billboards which I followed-up yesterday with the Big Society posts (and see here). Related was the interest in the TBH’s polling results in my Cornwall’s Tories are Stuffed. Also this week, I drew attention to Conservative PPC for Camborne and Redruth George Eustice’s pitch on his Green credentials. Mr Eustice might care to use his influence as an ex-speech writer for cycling, sledging Dave, to have a word in his leader’s shell-like about how Cameron lets the plane take the strain. Oh, and I’m still waiting a reply from Mr Derek Thomas about Mr Chris Grayling’s endorsement of homophobia.
