CHINGFORD: Lib Dems select parlimentary candidate
1:05pm Tuesday 13th May 2008
THE Liberal Democrats have selected their prospective parliamentary candidate to fight for the Chingford seat at the next election.
Dr Geoff Seeff will be taking on Iain Duncan Smith who has been the MP for the last 16 years.
He is a chartered accountant practicing as a management consultant and specialises in the economics of urban regeneration.
Dr Seeff said: "Disaffection with Labour grows with each new crisis while the Tories give no clear direction on any of today's big issues.
"Voters are coming to realise that the Lib Dems represent everything these two parties are not, and that they want what we offer; solid principles, sound policies and talented people to implement them."

Congratulations Dr Seeff on your candidature - I hope you succeed in deposing Mr Duncan - Smith, who in the experience of my friends & colleagues, has done remarkably little for his constituency.
Have you ever asked for his help?
Have you ever ignored or your request for help ignored?

It's harsh on Seeff, because he is not a councillor. But his party is no longer seen as a credible alternative to the Tories and New Labour.

and No Hope.
All thw LibDems are fit for is getting a few litter bins emptied and the odd bit of grafitti cleaned off walls, when it come to big decisions they are pathetically ineffectual.
