All the best…
Apologies for the lack of posts over the last two days. Minor domestic crisis (small flood in tooting, no-one killed) that had to be dealt with, then catching up with work today meant little joy in blogging terms.
All the best to all the Labour candidates fighting elections today. As a special non-partisan bonus, best of luck to candidates of all democratic parties who are up against the BNP.
I read the newspapers today. Shouldn’t have bothered. Pages of speculation that will be worth less than nothing by the time the results come out. Nobody knows anything. The same will be true on Friday because the papers can’t possibly cover the results well, they can only cover their guesses of how the results will go.
My advice is protect your brain from meaningless drivel and don’t read a newspaper until Saturday at the earliest.*
*make an exception for evening papers, bar the Standard. You shoudn’t bother with the Standard, not due to bias issues but because the Mayor result won’t be out in time for at least the early editions.

Same here , at least I did not feel the need to file any clippings. Looks quite promising for us so far. I think Boris will win because of the suburb turn out (v low last tinme but inner city votes were high).
On the Local Councils it seems to me that there is nothing like enough discounting for the state of play last time so I do not actually expect great things from such a high base
