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?
