Hi--Is there a way of knowing all the parties that will be standing in a
particular area (Croydon) beforehand 10th June?

Rgs--John


Hey John

I just a booklet through the mail that outlines all Mayoral candidates,

all
London Borough MEP and GLA candidates

You should be getting one too

Interesting thing is the Mayoral candidates spiel

ALL seem to be campaigning on the main issue of reducing CRIME with Norris
modling himself on Guilliani

The CONgestion charge will be SCRAPPED by all except Mad Ken & the

greenies
and just "Modified" by the fence sitting, wishy washy wibberwals

Public transport seems to be a hot topic too with most advocating the
reduction of speed cameras, bus lanes & speed bumps ( Thank feck!) and

Late
or all night running of the Tube

So it looks as though Londoners were polled as to what would win their

votes
and CRIME, The scrapping of the CONgestion charge & later running of

trains
& tubes were the big three

Another strong theme is the reduction of Council taxes and the sheer

amount
of public cash the Mayor & GLA consumes

Doesn't bode well for the Mad Ken *camp* who seem to think that he'll
somehow win a second term after FAILING to deliver on all but the most
meaningless of his pre-election promises

The mainstreamers didn't impress me at all, the suprise candidates who I
thought had the best understanding of what Londoners need were folks and
parties I'd never heared of,

IWCA ? who has heared of them ?

Watch out Mad Ken, looks like your empire has crumbled
