Demonstrable community engagement is something many want from their representatives. Also, what's the harm in a morale boosting pic?

Community engagement would be if he was doing this year round without the cameras watching and a bunch of leaflets in hand.

I do this without asking for a vote, a camera behind me or a twitter page to splurge my self-congratulatory BS onto.

When you were a Lib Dem did you ever go out campaigning? Did you like telling people you were trying to communicate with them?

I was a student whilst a Liberal Democrat. I never ran, nor saw office.

Don't need to run to campaign, dozens of our most engaged young people never want to.

Got to love the tory swivel: instead of accepting critique, simply spin-doctor the issue, turn around and deny!

I've denied nothing - group pictures are a great way to demonstrate community engagement and encourage morale in troops. No harm in it!
