But when it comes to the Lewes Town Council election, it's very noticeable that the Conservative Party find it almost totally impossible to put up candidates who live in the area...

    General Election 2015

    Query about ukips Nigel Farage MEP status, after election..

    There's not even an obligation for a party leader to stand for a seat in parliament, let alone win one. The best example is Nicola Sturgeon, who isn't a candidate in this election.

    Time for Tony Bloom to step down?

    That's the Bellotti defence of Archer. It didn't convince anyone then and it shouldn't ever work anywhere.
