So there you have it.
Obviously, I would advise every voter in Brecon and Radnorshire to sign the petition so we can get rid of this criminal and vote in somebody who might actually take the job seriously.
If you are not a voter in Brecon and Radnorshire – but know somebody who is – please advise them in the same manner.
I’ll try to keep you all updated on this latest erosion of the Conservative Party’s Parliamentary membership.

Like a good many we were tired of the Lib Dems, we stupidly put our constituency in the hands of somebody of whom we thought we could trust.. but as usual he’s is just another MP with zero morality and a keen interest in filling his pockets..
