A slightly sexist observation there

The MP was on TV yesterday talking about the scandal at Ipswich Hospital where a number of nurses seem to have given poor care to their patients. I think you’ll hear a lot from professional men in the Tory Party highlighting failings by women teachers nurses and social workers in the future. The Labour women NCO’s have been overpromoted and now it’s time for the true officer class to take control.

Ah I see. Thanks for the clarification. I was a bit confused.

Sorry, who are we talking about?

It can’t be a Lib Dem PPC for this seat.

Maybe he did try, but didn’t get selected?

The LD PPC could have been an MP if he’d tried one more time.

Hastings (Gensing ward)….elected in 2006. There was a by-election on 3 May 2007 in that ward

Reigate (Redhill East wardrd) …elected in 2007.

I *think* he was a Hastings councillor 2006-07 and a Reigate councillor either from 2007 or 2008, until 2010.
He was selected here in late 2009.

He was born in 1978. In fact he’s one of three Suffolk MPs born that year (along with Ben Gummer and Matthew Hancock).

This new MP looks young. Does anyone know when he was a Hastings Cllr and then a Reigate Cllr and when selected here?
