Grantham & Stamford - What are your voting choices?

At the last General Election in 2005 the people of Grantham and Stamford elected a Conservative Member of Parliament – Quentin Davies – to represent them.
On June 26th, 2007, the night before Gordon Brown became Prime Minister, Mr Davies defected to the Labour Party.
In the circumstances, it is perfectly justifiable for the electors of Grantham and Stamford to expect an explanation from their MP.
In a letter to the Conservative leader, David Cameron, Mr Davies made his reasons clear. He wrote:

“Under your leadership the Conservative Party appears to me to have ceased collectively to believe in anything, or to stand for anything. It has no bedrock. It exists on shifting sands. A sense of mission has been replaced by a PR agenda.”

He went on to accuse David Cameron of "superficiality, unreliability and an apparent lack of any clear convictions." Which he said ought to: "exclude you from the position of national leadership to which you aspire.”
Quite an indictment: but surely an MP who felt so strongly should have done the honourable thing and resigned and caused a by-election? Quentin Davies chose to stay as an MP regardless of the opinions of his constituents.
So who has been chosen to replace Quentin Davies as your new Conservative Party Candidate? Nick Boles a close associate of David Cameron, George Osborne, Rachel Whetstone and Ed Vaizey – an influential group of Conservatives often referred to as the ‘Notting Hill Set’

So the choices are as follows:

• Vote for your Local Liberal Democrat Candidate Harrish Bisnauthsing who lives and works in the constituency, is a Town councillor and ex-Mayor of Stamford and serves on the SKDC.
• Or vote for another Conservative candidate Nick Boles, who is closely associated with David Cameron and the views that caused the last Tory candidate to defect to the Labour Party.

It’s No Contest!

Harrish Bisnauthsing - Your local candidate.
