Skuds’ Sister’s Brother

I lived in Basildon for the first 18 years of my life. It looks like the place has taken a turn for the worse since then, judging by this website (as found by Mike Ion). I’ve got issues with some of our local Tories, but almost without exception they are better than this one.

This evening somebody told me that, following the UAF’s visits to Bewbush, Ifield, West Green and Ifield West over the weekend to try and increase voter turnout at the elections, the BNP held a little protest at the Ifield shops.

I know I have a few readers from Brighton, several of whom I have met and jolly nice people they are too.  Anyway, this is a message aimed right at the Brighton-dwelling, left-leaning, sorts.

This morning I was out with some UAF colleagues, handing out leaflets and talking to voters at local shopping parades in Crawley.  So far most of those involved are also involved in political parties which doesn’t really work, because any anti-BNP campaignign we do is time we could have spent campaigning for our own parties.  […]

Today’s Guardian G2 feature about the film Sicko was a bit of a gimmick, but interesting even so. They took 16 NHS workers to see the film about the US healthcare system and then asked them what they thought of it, and what they thought about the NHS.
Two themes emerged. Neither was really surprising , […]

This evening we held our meeting to get the Crawley & Horsham UAF established, and I am so glad it is out of the way.   It seemed like a good idea at the time - to hold an open meeting and get some sort of body of officers elected/selected - but as it got closer […]
