Thank you to Matt Davies (a Lib Dem Councillor in Haringey and a friend of mine from our days on the Liberal Democrat Youth and Students executive back in the 1990s) for what must be one of the most boring names for a council committee in the country. This is in contrast with what appears to [...]

I see that Matt Davies is reporting that Tory PPC for St Austell and Newquay Caroline Righton has issued an unpology . If fails to apologise for the email she sent in response to the Tweet that was reported to her but adapted somewhere along the way from Stephen Gilbert's original.
