Date: 2025-10-28 08:56 pm (UTC)Steve Score (who is the actually useful Socialist candidate) always stands in Leicester West (Leicester having South, West and North but no East) which is a real shame because he could have got in this time. And I'm sure the what we took to calling green-white-black independent who got in in Ashworth's place is lovely ... but Ashworth would have been so much of a better Health Secretary than Streeting.
I shall keep you updated on the bins.
