Bellotti on Radio 4 tonight (Sunday)

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

The Westminster Hour, 10pm, Radio 4 tonight (Sunday) is doing a series abvout by-elections that changed the political map of Britain. Tonight it features Eastbourne in 1990. The one that was won by you-know-who.

I suggest everyone listens to it, and -- if it fails to point out the spectacular craptitude of the man in his post-parliamentary career -- gives friendly and eloquent feedback (ie not just "Bellotti is scum" but why we hate him and what he was responsible for) at this url:

PS the segment about the Eastbourne by election starts at 10.45 tonight and will be repeated on Wednesday 15th at 8.45pm

I listen to the Westminster Hour most weeks, not just when Bellotti's on. Does that make me a saddo or something?

 

[Hilton]

I got a reply from them just now, they seemed to take my Belloti comments well!

 

[Dover]

Many thanks. I am listening at the moment and wonder is Mr. Belloti employable, or will he be reduced to making prgrammes like Mr. Portillo, showing later this week.

 

[The Clown of Pevensey Bay]

At least "Miguel" Portillo was found a safe seat in a by-election after he was kicked out of Parliament. After losing four elections in a row, David Bellotti is now a local councillor. In Bath.

In fact, if you select a random bit of www.bathnes.gov.uk, you get

Bellotti, Mr David Frank
12 Kipling Avenue, Bath, BA2 4RB.
01225 427560
bellotti@cix.co.uk

Weird, eh?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I wonder whether they'll mention the fact that he was done for illegal parking outside the fish and chip shop in South Street, Lewes - on the day he was elected to parliament.

I've always admired the insight of Lewes Police. They can spot a bad un' quicker than most.

 

[Dover]

Is he still involved with Gillingham FC

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Albion got a mention - Bellotti, apparently, was an unpopular figure, whose effigy was burnt.

Anyone remember why?

The Westminster Hour did at least briefly mention his Albion connection and the fact that his effigy was burned on Bonfire Night in Lewes.

Well done the BBC!

 

[Lord Bracknell]

There's a link to the recording of the programme here

Warning! There is an extremely unpleasant photograph on this web page.

 

[Dover]

Yes. Fully agree about the photograph. I was disapointed with the programme. It did not say anything new about the election or the real mood of the public at the time.
