I have recently joined the CLIMATE PARTY , whose leader is ED GEMMELL .
In particular, the Climate Party is highly motivated to field a candidate for the upcoming Holborn & St Pancras by-election (the seat from which Keir Starmer recently resigned). It would generate a lot of publicity and give them a platform to debate with and challenge the other parties.
Now, do not LAUGH, but, um – [blush] – I am to be that very candidate… as no-one else is available to do it.
Do not fear for my sanity. I am only a ‘paper candidate’ as I’m too busy to do anything on this other than have my name on the ballot. Others will do all the clever stuff. I will not take part in any of the hustings, indeed not even go to the vote count as Alistair McGowan will be performing at Red Hedgehog on 8 October, when voting takes place. (Of course, either Labour or the Greens will win this seat in any case.)
