The future of the Tory Party

Being woken up with the words - ‘there is a great piece in The Independent on you and Hornsey’ is not something that often jumps to mind. But that is today.

There is a really well thought through and intelligent piece in The Independent today and I am really delighted about being described as ‘the future of the Tory party.’

Back to reality though as a canvassing team appears and off we go to Muswell Hill, the so-called bastion of Lib Dem voters.

There is now real and vocal concern on the doorstep about a possible hung parliament and which way the Lib Dems will go if that happens.

Having removed Labour in Hornsey the last thing they want to see is a propped up Brown supported by the Lib Dems.

Another day of running round with posters and leaflets is taking its toll. I am loosing my voice and I am not happy about it as I have two hustings tomorrow and I am determined to repeat the successes of previous ones.

I receive a series of emails from people who attended Monday night backing me describing me in one as ‘the ideal intelligent constituency MP’. Throat is killing me but this has at least put a smile on my face.
