A Canvasser

[poliphilo]

A canvasser from the Labour party called.  A handsome young man in a donkey jacket. I told him I might support Labour in the by-election that'll be coming soon in Old(ham East) and Sad(dleworth)-  but I'd like to see their candidate first.  Actually, reflecting on it, I don't see how I can possibly vote anything but Labour, now that a vote for the Lib Dems is effectively a vote for the Tory assault on the Welfare State.

They haven't even called the election yet. They can't because the sitting member was turfed out by a judge for wrongdoing and is currently launching an appeal. Until the case is settled we'll be without an MP (not that anyone is likely to notice).
