Contest for Croydon Central seems to come down to "how many crowds can I stand in front of" #CroydonDeservesBetter @LabourSJ @BackBarwellpic.twitter.com/b8yvoPsQW0

Seriously, go through their twitter feeds and try to find some semblance of policy or advocacy. It's just reams of gratuitous self-promotion
You mean apart from Gavin's priorities? http://www.gavinbarwell.com/priorities and his unending blog advocating for residents? http://gavinbarwell.com/blog_list.asp
Campaign promises are not the same thing as policies, Mario. Simply saying "I'll provide affordable housing" is not a policy or a solution.
And his "unending blog" is full of political double speak. Talking *around* issues as opposed to actually providing meaningful solutions.
Since 2008 Gavin has written about a hundreds of complex and tough subjects, to say it's talking around issues is childish and inaccurate.
Talking *about* an issue is 1 thing. Providing a progressive solution w. quantitative effects is anotherCrime has *increased* since Barwell.
Gavin has been providing solutions to many issues, both locally and nationally - that's what MPs do. For example: http://www.croydonadvertiser.co.uk/croydon-mp-s-mental-health-law/story-18286716-detail/story.html …
Is that why I and millions across the country can't afford a home? Why Croydon has some of the most decrepit conditions in the country?
Solving complex and ingrained national issues isn't easy - and he's been Housing Minister for less than a year. Perspective needed methinks.
