November 19, 201411 yr He was, but Bedlington was part of the Morpeth constituency till the current Wansbeck constituency was formed in 1983, when George Grant stood down as MP and Jack Thompson became MP.
November 19, 201411 yr INTRESTING to see how many people turn up to that one I'll do a head count on the night and let you know Thursday AM how many turn up. As you would say, lol... 74 lol....
November 20, 201411 yr Foxy!!!! Did they get the stocks out for 3G & Willy or were they in Rochester giving out leaflets lol...
November 20, 201411 yr They didn't, however at the meeting there was a democratic vote taken and the vast majority were in favour of keeping the stocks handy, and all the rotten tomato's close at hand for your next visit!
November 20, 201411 yr Author On behalf of everyone at the Wansbeck branch of UKIP, I would like to send a big thank you to all who attended the Public Meeting at the Community centre last night. Especially those who stayed to the end to hear Melanie speak and engage with her during Q & A. It showed us that, although this was only the first of many, that we can look forward to the next one with a lot of hope. It is obvious to us all that there is real passion for Bedlington, and believe me, Melanie shares that passion, as we all do. Make no mistake, that if she is elected to represent Wansbeck, she has the determination to right the wrongs that the town has suffered under Labour. We have not seen the best of her yet, maybe if some of the North East Labour MP's finally pluck up the guts to take up her challenge to debate, you will see a much tougher, determined lady. Anyway, my main intention was to thank you all for attending and look forward to seeing you all again.
November 20, 201411 yr I stayed about 75% of the way before I had to leave, but what I had to hear was informative and enlightening. As mentioned earlier, it's good to go to these events if only to give yourself direct, first hand information straight from the horse's mouth, and I got that. I would recommend others finding the time to go to these events in the future. As far as knowledge serves, I've yet to hear anyone from any other party other than UKIP that has taken the time to visit Bedlington?

Why Now? Answers on a Postcard please. Thumbs Up for your post YIStuart
