Real change

As I predicted (Blog 16th January) Lee Anderson has jumped ship again, now to the Reform Party. Being a man of honour he’s not resigning his seat to test whether his constituents actually want a Reform MP. That’s too risky, especially after Reform’s poor showing in the Rochdale by-election. But I hear you say, what about poor old Henry Grisewood? Indeed. As of today, Henry is still listed as Reform’s parliamentary candidate in Ashfield on the party’s website. This is what he has had to say ‘Henry is standing for Reform UK because he has had enough of the mediocre representation that has been given to the people of Ashfield and Great Britain, and believes that to bring true change, we need to change our voting habits, and not just continue to allow an unelected government to make vital decisions that are not a real representation of what the people need.’ (emphasis added) You’ve got to agree with Henry about the mediocrity. But now presumably he’ll be out door knocking for 30p Lee. That’s real change for you.
