As it is,...Let's wait and see on Adrian shall we. <br /><br />As it is, Marcus only spoke out when Steen was a 'gonner' - hardly fits the image of the 'fearless campaigner' he'd like to portray. Too little, too late, Marcus.<br /><br />Moreover, you've repeatedly tried to villify Adrian since being Tory PPC. You're obsessed with the Lib Dems, but fail to answer policy questions, like which group the Tories can ally with in the EU parliament.<br /><br />As for Bye, he's ever more a wanabe MP than Marcus. What can you mean 'respect' ? Marcus once said Nick is the best thing to happen to the bay in a generation, or words to that end. How can you disagree with this 'wisdom' ? And, as Marcus keeps saying, following his canvass returns, he's sure Nick is a great electoral asset.<br /><br />Let's hope Marcus' judgement is as poor as ever.<br /><br />If you want to be respected Marcus you need to challenge those abusing MP's expenses, irrespective of party. This you have clearly failed to do, hence the allegation of politically motivated point scoring from many, me included.Barrie Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05308278683431698206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-45349252038187468662009-05-24T23:04:39.171+00:002009-05-24T23:04:39.171+00:00Bye wont resist, be the best all round if he gets ...Bye wont resist, be the best all round if he gets it, Torbay loses a crap mayor and Totnes goes LD at the next election.<br /><br />Adrian Sanders is being badly advised on the PR front I agree he looks in the shit over expenses- I wish he would do something. I am still hoping that Charlie Windsor ends up with egg on his face when (if) it turns out he is barking up the wrong tree.<br /><br />The possibility that sanders has actually got something to hide doesn't bear thinking about.respect choicenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-59828301060611039582009-05-24T20:26:10.441+00:002009-05-24T20:26:10.441+00:00It will be interesting to see if the wannabe MP By...It will be interesting to see if the wannabe MP Bye, who has coveted the Totnes seat,throws his hat into the ring.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-72022083796017602602009-05-24T20:23:09.036+00:002009-05-24T20:23:09.036+00:00You feel unmotivated to vote FUV ?!

Look at Bye, Carroll and Wood - look at the number of Masons in Tory ranks at the town hall, the lack of policies but the surfeit of point scoring from Marcus.<br /><br /><br />The grubbiest, grasping MP's have been Tory. The lack of humility and arrogance of Steen and Mackay reminds us how out-of-touch the Tories are, locally and nationally.

The Tories would have dumped him for a younger model, so should the Lib Dems.<br /><br />And by the time his expenses are eventually dragged into the light the local media will have no other distractions, July is usually a very quiet news month i suspect the Herald Depressed will be overjoyed.<br /><br />He has been completely cack-handed over his media management, at least Mr Younger Ross has faced the music and as a result will probably survive but I can't say that with any confidence for your man.<br /><br />Mr Wood is milking it for all its worth but frankly on current form he is entitled to, since he has been going on about the expenses for years, Sanders has just played into his hands, it's hideous to watch.<br /><br />If you really don't want to see the Tories get back you seem to be going a funny way about it. I have voted for years to keep Tories out of Torbay but I have never felt less motivated to vote in my life as I do now.Fed up voternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6385595.post-59538958213528323892009-05-22T21:09:22.370+00:002009-05-22T21:09:22.370+00:00Absolute spin Marcus !
