At this stage of the electoral cycle it's pretty nearly too late for a serious independent candidate to introduce himself to the electorate so a spoiled paper is my second option. However, I live in a C&UP, 'monkey with a blue rosette' sinecure, represented by a 'parachuted in' Scot who, it has been alleged (earlier this year, in the national press), has engaged in what cannot but have been criminal practices that I consider highly undesirable in an MP so I shall be voting for UKIP, purely because a spoiled ballot paper cannot give Cameron and his pretty boy and ugly girl friends the fright I think they deserve.<br /><br />I am in no sense a UKIP supporter but in the absence of any local alternative they will get my reluctant vote.William Gruffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02434757003701117714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6693950082152211516.post-52787476714148321602014-11-20T14:14:53.690+00:002014-11-20T14:14:53.690+00:00Someone must be very worried.
