Now to gain selection as candidate.<BR/><BR/>As to my pledge of £1000 towards campaign funds, it is for you to decide when the campaign to unseat incumbent MP begins. It is for you to inform me as to when funds are required. Whereafter cheque will be in the post.

Also I might be studying in Wales by the time of the next election so if you need any help is selected let me know.

Although I am not within your Constituency - and therefore I cannot vote - I have sent recent emails to the Welsh and the Parliamentary Lib Dems, criticising Lembit Opik for his thoughtless and publicity-seeking behaviour, and suggesting that he seems to prefer a life within Entertainment rather than Politics. I feel that he is an embarrassment to Wales, and to the Wales Lib Dems. The sooner he is replaced as an MP, the better. Admittedly, his private life is his business, but it is never private. He courts publicity like a waning Pop Star.Allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09322971907336788805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-72920826871752389012007-06-11T13:44:00.000+01:002007-06-11T13:44:00.000+01:00Congratulations Glyn.

However, I'm more interested in whether you think Dan Munford will try and stand for the Tory post? In the meantime, and in my neutral position - best of luck. I'm looking forward to the debates between you and Lembit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34112832.post-24264010767435852612007-06-11T13:37:00.000+01:002007-06-11T13:37:00.000+01:00Thanks.

Peter Black thinks everyone has been giving me far too easy a ride since May 3rd - so he won't like the best wishes. <BR/><BR/>Its rather cruel of Lembit to remind everyone that he defeated me in 1997 - and that Mick defeated me in 1999 and 2003. But I was getting nearer. He sounds hugely confident.<BR/><BR/>Myfanwy - I admire your courage. Your big sister frightens the life out of me and I would never have taken the risk.
