Please note that my email address has changed

When I first started blogging I was parliamentary candidate for Copeland, and I set up an email address which included the name of that constituency.

I continued to use that email for a number of years, it still seemed relevant as I also served as a member of Copeland Borough Council and on the Copeland local committee of Cumbria County Council.

However, last year both Copeland Borough Council and Cumbria County Council were abolished and last week the Copeland constituency followed them into history, at least for now.

So I have been trying to phase out that email address. I thought I had removed it from all my social media before announcing my candidacy for Leeds North East in the 2024 General election.

Unfortunately it can be quite hard to scrub old and no longer accurate information from the internet, due to things like cached pages, and one of the websites which publishes details of candidates managed to dig up my old email and publish it again.

I asked them to correct it, and they quickly did, so but the damage was done and it turns out that about fifty inquiries have been sent to my obsolete email address.

If you have attempted to contact me via my former email address which includes "copeland" and there has been a delay in replying, please accept my apologies. And if you find a reference to that email address still up anywhere on the internet, please let me know where, preferably with the URL, so that I can correct it or ask the person publishing the relevant site to do so.

For future reference, the email to use now is chris4leedsne@gmail.com

Pat Graham RIP

I was very sorry to learn that Pat Graham, the last Chief Executive of Copeland Borough Council, died this morning. She was a consummate professional and widely respected by the vast majority of councillors and staff members she dealt with. Trudy Harrison MP, the local member of parliament, who knew Pat Graham very well, having worked with her when they were both at Copeland Council, wrote this moving tribute to Pat: "Pat was the best ambassador for us women to look up to, I learned from Pat that motherhood and forging a professional career can go together.  A tragic day for West Cumbria and all who knew her, I can’t begin to comprehend what her family are now going through.  I hope we can keep the project flames burning brightly on those she sparked and really cared about." Very many condolences to her family. Rest in Peace.

The Hindu manifesto 2024

As I posted yesterday, earlier that evening I took part in the second hustings of the campaign in Leeds North East, which was organised by the local Hindu community. This was the first time such a hustings has been organised by the Hindu community. It was well attended by local residents. There ere a lot of questions to the candidates present all of which were polite, respectful, and friendly, and the event was a credit to the organisers and the community. Hindus for Democracy have prepared an excellent manifesto addressing issues affecting the Hindu Community, which you can find at the link below: Hindus for Democracy - - United Kingdom This contains a whole series of very reasonable and sensible proposals and as I promised at the hustings I am happy to endorse it. So have a substantial number of other Conservative candidates and candidates from other mainstream parties. In particular, if elected I promise to work against all forms of hatred and discrimination, including anti-Hindu pr
