Since we've been back I (we've) taken a bit more interest in politics. We have the time and the interest.
We arrived too late to vote in the last national elections and out of curiosity I started to take a small interest in who won in our area. Geographically it's a very big area and would stretch the incumbent.
Then, somewhat by accident I came across a friend of our MP who I found out had been invited to speak locally. Our MP is Julian Smith and his friend is Rory Stewart. Stewart in particular interested me because of what he has achieved at such an early age. If you take a look at his Wiki page and look at his achievements it's almost unbelievable.
Having now met him I could easily see him as Prime Minister. Watch this space.
I wasn't familiar with him but I like what I read. And Scottish too :)
ReplyDeleteDid you mean to say, 'And despite being Scottish too?'
DeleteOf course I didn't :) I shall put our beloved great leader (who shares your name of course) onto you if you keep that up!
