If he wants to help Torbay that much why hasn't he at least proved his worth as a Torbay Councillor ? Is it not lucrative or prestigious enough for you Marcus ?<BR/><BR/>Secondly Adrian Sanders IS a popular local (born sand bred) MP, despite what Marcus might have you believe. I'd much prefer him to the Tories. A real progressive versus the fake new Toryism of Marcus. And, I say this as a LABOUR voter. I might have to vote Liberal this time to keep the Tories out !!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-57087956487780854452008-11-22T14:53:00.000+00:002008-11-22T14:53:00.000+00:00Current 'poll of polls' has:Con 41.6L D 14.4Lab 34...Current 'poll of polls' has:<BR/><BR/>Con 41.6<BR/>L D 14.4<BR/>Lab 34.0<BR/><BR/>Unless there is a sustained collapse in Conservative support back below about 38% I'd have though Marcus Wood was guaranteed to win in Torbay - and that is almost irrespective of the level of local Lib Dem support.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-40871176143444232032008-11-20T09:38:00.000+00:002008-11-20T09:38:00.000+00:002005 GENERAL ELECTION:LIB DEMS 23%CONSERVATIV...2005 GENERAL ELECTION:<BR/><BR/>LIB DEMS 23%<BR/>CONSERVATIVES 33%<BR/><BR/>THIS POLL<BR/><BR/>LIB DEMS 12%<BR/>CONSERVATIVES 40%Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-77649130626271041952008-11-19T13:47:00.000+00:002008-11-19T13:47:00.000+00:00Oh dear...latest poll puts Tories only 3% in front...Oh dear...latest poll puts Tories only 3% in front.

Oh, that and sleaze.<BR/><BR/>And today ? What fun it is to see Osborne squirming, not knowing which way to face, with policy direction being made on the hoof. He and Cameron suggest one way, the Tory right suggest another and neither convince. <BR/><BR/>Who has come out of the credit crisis with reputation and integrity intact ? Step forward Dr Vince Cable of the Lib Dems! Good on analysis and solutions.<BR/><BR/>Moreover. Brown IS getting the better of George Gideon Osborne. I think there is more chance of Marcus mastering the use of an apostrophe than Osborne having a convincing plan for the economy !<BR/><BR/>Still I'm sure Marcus will find another poll to extrapolate another set of ridiculous assertions from soon ! Keep smiling Marcus, Maybe YOU can stand for Torbay mayor next time !!!! You couldn't be worse than the incumbentAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
