This is indeed an excellent cause and Tony Lit is a great candidate! I’m thinking of heading down there myself, but for everyone else who is interested I saw the following call to arms on YouTube:

“the Lib Dems are still trying to get Ming to select a candidate instead of talking about the time he was in the Olympics over and over and over.”

God, where to start with you chaps, eh? Unlike the centralising Tories, in the LibDems we don’t parachute candidates into seats. Ming doesn’t select candidates, the local party does, and the day after you wrote this, Ealing LD’s selected Nigel Bakhai, the same man who ran in 2005, beating the Tories into third place. He’s had a good start to the campaign, too, with Brij Mohan Gupta, Deputy Chair (Political) of Ealing Southall Conservatives and Vice-Chair of Southall Green and Southall Broadway Conservative ward parties defecting to the Libs over, funnily enough, CCO forcing the Ealing branch to “accept someone whose commitment to the party is less than a week old” (Mr Gupta’s words). Let battle commence!

Unfortunately, I shall be abroad from the 5th until the 15th July but would love to help out in the By-Election campaign. Since I cannot do too much walking I can help with telephone cavassing (I have done so at Sutton and Cheam General and Local Elections) and I am very good at helping out at the Campaign Headquaters (helped at 2 Putney General Election Campaign) and many other London By-Election campaign.
