        Of course today under Ofcom guidelines, this is a strict requirement to reveal a list of candidates for the area that has a election (even mayoral elections).

        I enjoyed this. But why is there a picture of Justin Trudeau behind her?

        Sadly it is m8, what an opportunity MISSED by us from Chesterfield to do the RIGHT THING and DESTROY that useless rag. Mind you I would rather have ALL those MINOR candidates from 1984 over who we have representing us now 😡😡😡
