This takes effect today, Friday 8 May." <br /><br />No idea why - they had claimed it was a non-political grouping despite the clear evidence to the contrary, perhaps the Greens in Cambridge have belated realised that they won't be able to convice the electorate of this and they would end up being associated with policies they didn't want to be.Chris Howellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00788153276499154335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3985711776365144891.post-73115309364826973112009-05-10T23:01:00.000+01:002009-05-10T23:01:00.000+01:00Do you know any more about the fracture of the Hip...Do you know any more about the fracture of the Hipkin - Wright dream team?<br /><br />Come on Chris - spill the beans!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3985711776365144891.post-71850710206537061042009-05-09T14:18:00.000+01:002009-05-09T14:18:00.000+01:00God help us if the Lib Dems take control of the Co...God help us if the Lib Dems take control of the County.
