Brunswick Park Ward Selection and Hibs beat the "Meadow"!

Big news for me of course is that I was selected by the 35+ Members of the Brunswick Ward Labour Party on a very cold Friday evening to stand as a Labour Party Candidate for their Ward in this year's Southwark Council Elections. As you can imagine I am very grateful to those Members and to have the opportunity to continue as a Camberwell Councillor and represent the residents of Brunswick Park Ward, a patch I know very well as a previous Brunswick Ward Member from 1994 to 2002 before the boundaries changed!
The important thing now after a difficult situation over the Past 2 months is to focus on the job at hand, delivering a victory in Brunswick Park Ward, Southwark Council and the UK as a whole for a historic and unparalleled 4th Term Labour Government and the Opinion Polls are sharply moving back in the right direction as the "airbrushed" Cameron becomes gradually more exposed!! Watching Cameron on the Andrew Marr Show at the moment is a timely reminder to me why I do this to keep him and his sort out of power for as long as Humanly possible!!! Perhaps rumours of my death were greatly exaggerated!!!
I am sad for my good friends Sandra Rhule and Mark Williams who were not selected. Sandra has been a fantastic colleague to work with and i hope to continue to work with her in the future and I feel for Mark especially as he was Selected in the first running so must feel very disappointed but he accepted the result with good grace despite my profound guilt but he did remind me that he will still be under 30 by the time of the 2014 Elections so he has time on his side and will be a truly fantastic Councillor for Camberwell and Southwark! For me I cant pretend that the Camberwell Green wounds have fully healed but I need to get over that as quickly as possible and move on and I will!!!
Hibs got through to the next round of the Scottish Cup after a historic game against Irvine Meadow, the first ever competitive match between a SPL team againt a Junior Team, only possible because of recent SFA rule changes.
Inevitably the Meadow came away with all the plaudits if not the result and details are at link below:

That's great news John - Well done and very well deserved.
I hope to see you around on the campaign trail as I'm standing in Upper Norwood, trying to regain the 2 seats from the Tories which we lost in 2006.
Any time you have we would love to see you!

Hiya! I know this is kinda off topic but I'd figured I'd ask.

Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa?

My blog discusses a lot of the same topics as yours and I think
we could greatly benefit from each other. If you're interested feel free to shoot me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Fantastic blog by the way!

A motivating discussion is definitely worth comment.
I do think that you should write more on this subject, it might not be a taboo matter but usually people don't speak about these subjects. To the next! Many thanks!!

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is needed to get set up? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty
penny? I'm not very web savvy so I'm not 100% positive. Any recommendations
or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
