Local Election Update

The palatial politicsjunkie operations centre is in the Bethnal Green North ward of Tower Hamlets.
The LibDems have delivered the most leaflets so perhaps we should vote for them? They seem to be the main opposition to Labour.
Three Labour councillors are being prosecuted for fraud, so they do not inspire confidence. The message of the Labour leaflet seems to be that if you vote LibDem, all the community support officers will be sacked and replaced with thugs in hoodies. Interesting.
The Labour candidates are dressed SO badly on their election leaflet that I do not think I can bring myself to vote for them anyway. I mean really - if you are fat, don't wear tight clothes. It is not rocket science.
Given the press coverage of these elections, it is worth noting who is NOT touting for the vote of politicsjunkie
Despite the cigar-bothering, Veritas-tanned carpetbagger Galloway's presence, there has been no campaiging from the lovely Respect coalition in this ward - not so much as a leaflet! They must be concentrating on the Muslim vote around Brick Lane.
Despite Margaret Hodge running round declaring they are about to take over the universe, the BNP are nowhere to be seen either. The fascists tend to concentrate on areas with a small but visible non-white population. I would love to see them campaign round here - they would last about 15 seconds. It seems the message of racial purity is one that the people of Bethnal Green North will be spared this election.
More on election day as we make the final decision!
