Only a linkblog today, as I’m exhausted after delivering 320 leaflets throughout Fallowfield for Qassim Afzal (who the Daily Mail hate – good enough reason to vote for him as any) and Dave Page. Tomorrow I’m campaigning for Mat Bowles and Jennie Rigg in Yorkshire, so may not get much time to post then either.

I was quite tired when I did this last night, and it was an error of judgement to post it, but I was never saying I believed it…

“For the past twenty years or so I’ve been a consistent Liberal Democrat voter, only considering alternatives if there was some reason to vote tactically.”
