Poor Ed Matts. First he’s caught doctoring a photograph of himself and Ann Widdecombe to realign it with the beliefs of his party, and now a British Olympic gold medallist pictured alongside him in a leaflet said she wasn’t asked for permission for the photo to be used. She also says she’s a Labour supporter.
He’s up against the Labout incumbent Jim Knight who has a very slim majority of less than 1000. I imagine Knight will be laughing all the way to the ballot box over this.
Meanwhile, John O’Farrell has a wonderful piece on the other big election – the election of the new pope. I’m secretly hoping that they’ll elect a mix-raced HIV-positive lesbian who has had an abortion and was abused as a child but I doubt that’ll happen.
