Canvassing in Ifield West

March 11th, 2006 · Posted by Skuds in Politics · No Comments · Politics

This morning we went across to Ifield West to do some canvassing.

Unfortunately the candidate for that area is currently the deputy mayor and was down in the town centre promoting Fair Trade Fortnight, but one of his colleagues was out with us.

All together there were eight of us out there, and it was a bit strange as Eugene was out with us, and I have never been canvassing with a celebrity before. When he went knocking on doors he would be getting asked to pose for photos. In one case a girl had to call a friend on her mobile to tell her who was at her door, and Eugene then had to talk to her.

Campaigning in Furnace Green with him should be fun. I hope that the voters there will vote for us because we have the best policies and because their Tory councillor has lived and worked outside the country for the last year, rather than the fact that our candidate was on TV, but at the end of the day they all count.
I couldn’t help being amused by his car though. I wonder if Jayne will let me put “skuds.co.uk” down the side of our Laguna?
