I don't really know where to start with the update there has been so much going on. Having looked through the analytics for this site I am pleased to report that it is becoming more and more popular. People are clearly responding to our positive campaigning message, which can be contrasted to the increasingly bizarre actions and statements of my opponent. It's fair to say that the local Labour MP doesn't like me calling him out on his record.

Last night our local Labour MP voted to pay billions of pounds extra of taxpayers money over to the EU by backing the European Communities Finance Bill, again! No doubt he will claim to never have voted for it, just like his office have been telling local people that he never voted for Post Office closures. Fortunately, many local people have contacted me for clarification which I have been more than happy to provide. It's fair to say local people don't like getting fibbed to and treated as fools by Labour.

We have had a huge response to our survey on the proposed fire cuts at Goole Fire Station, including very many by way of the website which is a positive sign. We are continuing to deliver the surveys locally and I am really enjoying being out on the street talking to local people. Last Saturday in Goole was really quite amusing. I met a couple of people in the street we were delivering to who came up to me and said they were just talking about me a few minutes before my team and I arrived in the street to leaflet. They had an important issue they wanted to discuss and it is clearly a good example of how our positive message is being picked up on locally.

Tomorrow morning I am in Goole to meet with the Goole Action Group before going on to meet with the campaigners fighting the closure of the Driving Test Centre in Gainsborough and then on to Hull to meet some those campaigning against the Goole fire cuts. Look North from Hull has covered the story in some detail but sadly, as most residents in Goole get the Look North from Leeds, it has not been seen by those most affected.

I can't believe how many people are contacting me locally to ask for my input on various issues. It's a pleasure to be of help locally and we are proving that local people want someone who is going to fight for their interests locally, not just do as they are told by their party.
