My apologies to all and sundry, in spite of my efforts I did not spell Rupa's first name correctly, the psychology of trying too hard is at work here rather than any deliberate intent. Here is a corrected version of my post that replaces the first one with a couple of spelling mistakes corrected (and of course Rupa's first name). I concur with you Dennis. It is a case of the signal and the noise. The spelling mistakes, the disproportionate reactions to how people speak, are the noise, we are missing the signal which is what have these people done for Ealing. This applies to all MP candidates. We now know who the LibDem candidates will be: Ealing Central and Acton: Jon Ball Ealing North: Humaira Sanders Ealing Southall: Nigel Bakhai And the Labour ones: Ealing Central and Acton: Rupa Huq Ealing North: Steven Pound Ealing Southall: Virendra Sharma (I hope I have go their names spelled correctly, I don't really want the thought police knocking on my door tomorrow) None of this will come as a surprise to anyone, I think. What I want to hear from all of these candidates is: What they have done for Ealing, and what they are going to do for Ealing in the future. These are all highly intelligent people who must be capable of some good ideas and who all have some awareness of the issues facing the area. The game changer will be when the Conservative Party announces candidates as rumoured about on Wednesday later this week. At this point in time I perceive Ealing Southall and Ealing North continuing to remain in Labour hands though with a reduced majority that has shifted to the LibDems, Greens and the Conservatives. Ealing Central Acton is going to be a blood bath with a three-way split between Jon Ball (LibDem), Rupa Huq (Labour) and the unknown Angie-Bray-Successor. A lot rests on who is chosen to be the Angie-Bray-Successor; if the choice is a buggins turn old guard good old boy councillor then Jon Ball is in with chance, or it will be Rupa Huq again, if it is someone a little more in tune with the realities of densely-populated multi-cultural city life then the Conservatives could swing that seat. Everything is up for grabs today. So much rests on a handshake.
