I got in local papers and appeared on local TV and radio and attended four hustings. Fifty percent of my manifesto was on local matters which had been failed to be addressed by the other candidates. I also stood for my Parish council of Gt. Carlton which had seven candidates for four seats. In the final result I finished last in the constituency but first for the parish, by quite a large margin. Having decided against having flyers delivered the total cost for the campaign, not including the deposit, came to about £100. Most of this was for the “I’m a Lincs Loony” badges which proved to be very popular. Roll on the conference in Blackpool!
