ALL DAY ACTION IN CROYDON

Saturday 29th May – Tracey and I headed for Croydon High Street to join the branch campaign. We went via New Cross Gate Station and East Croydon (Predictably There were engineering works cutting off West Croydon). The Croydon Branch Gazebo had been moved from their usual pitch opposite the Alms House to make way for a Euro Fair. However, we were nevertheless getting so much support at the UK Independence Party gazebo that instead of clocking off at 2pm as intended we carried on until after 5pm. People were coming up for a chat about our policies and leaving with posters for their windows. A great many people told us they had already voted by post, for us. All in all I was leafleting on the street for over eight hours. My feet ache and hopefully what looks like sunburn now will turn into a healthy (non-orange) tan later.
