Ely & East Cambridgeshire – it’s a new one, don’t ya know. This is a brand-new constituency so, clearly, we’re ripe for a change from everything that hasn’t gone before.
As a result, I’m a brand-new Loony candidate; which is more than can be said for some of the unofficial party offerings.
There are Loony enclaves and a range of extremely good hostelries scattered around the seat, including one directly opposite Local Loony HQ. Anyone who fancies exploring them and maybe doing some light campaigning at the same time will find themselves made more than welcome.
My nomination papers were delivered to the extremely friendly election team at East Cambridgeshire District Council at lunchtime on Thursday. We had the novel experience of the Council not being entirely sure how to take my deposit off me, and no, it wasn’t the five-hundred and six 99p coins causing the issue! But all sorted and paperwork submitted. Onwards and sideways!
