Helping Ben Gummer


I have been out and about in this lovely weather doing a bit of work for the Conservative election effort, partly here in South Suffolk, but mainly in Ipswich, where young Ben Gummer is trying to unseat Labour’s Chris Mole.

I very much like Ben. He is clever and also extremely courteous. Some time ago he was supposed to be the guest speaker at a Branch event and was unavoidably unable to come at the last minute. Even though the lunch was not in his prospective constituency he wrote to EVERY PERSON who was there by hand to apologise for his non appearance.

I fear that after 6th May Ben will be too busy for such acts of politeness but it is nice to know that he is capable of them.
