The Loneliness of the Croydon Lib Dems

I just found myself at the web page of the Croydon Lib Dems, where it proudly proclaims on its masthead, "Working for the people of Croydon".

Erm, there are no LD councillors, (one was elected in 2002...) no LD MPs since 1983 (and by election winner Bill Pitt lasted 20 months) , no constituency GLA members and the sole London wide MEP appears to live in Newmania's backyard.

Note that the as yet to achieve office John Cartwright of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party (who has been threatened with de-selection for being too sensible, I think, and is a mainstay of Politicalbetting.com and sundry other political discussion sites) does not claim that he is "Working for the people of Croydon".

Curious that Sutton has had an LD council for 20 years & 2 LD MPs for 10. Must be down to campaining more in Sutton.

I take it the Croy is aware Ontario goes to the polls tomorrow. & that the Tory leader is ... Mr John Tory?

Tues. 9e.

Those Suttonites, eh?

Good job he is with the good guys, as I am sure the Liberals would never allow placards with Vote Tory, would they?

Mind you, I suppose there must be Vote (Damian) Green for Ashford posters and so forth.
