Very Important Part 2

Just a bit more detail; remember that the Project and its Special People cannot fail, that is what drives the party machinery now.

Go to The Grauniad for a good write up.

Some paragraphs worth noting: "A third of the 279 party members have applied for a postal vote rather than turn up for the originally scheduled hustings, an unusually high number. A large postal vote means Gould (The Favoured One) could have won the selection before the hustings took place, although the inquiry launched last night will postpone any result."

And last week's goings on revisited: "Losing a selection before hustings takes place is a situation Susan Press is familiar with. In West Yorkshire earlier this month, Press, a popular local mayor, lost the Labour nomination for Calder Valley to Steph Booth, who is married to Tony Blair's father-in-law. Although Press won the vote at the hustings by 35 to 22, when the postal votes were counted Booth sealed the nomination. Nearly two-thirds of the voters had applied for a postal vote."

And the busted ballot box? Well according to Guido Fawkes that was in the "safe hands" of ZaNuLab HQ when opened and the slips torn up...

Er, not the "nasty tories" this time then?
