Perhaps the classiest electorate for any internal Party election?

In the quest to deliver the remainder of my job as Regional Secretary, I am hard at work on election business this evening and, in particular, one of the two elections I have promised to conduct.

Whilst I'm not aware of the logic behind it, our Regional Constitution allows for the following vacancies to be filled by, and from, the ranks of our Parliamentarians;
  • one member of the Regional Executive
  • one member of the Regional Campaigns Committee
  • two members of the Regional Policy Committee
And do we have a classy list of voters, and potential candidates...
  • four MPs - Messrs Huppert, Lamb, Russell and Wright
  • three Baronesses - Brinton, Scott and Williams
  • four Barons - Hussain, Loomba, McNally and Phillips; and,
  • one MEP - the irrepressible Andrew Duff
So, with nominations closing on 13 November, we'll see whether we get a contest (they are, after all, pretty busy people)... Watch this space...
