You're quite right about Griffin's father and, yes, he did stand as an NF candidate (I forget the exact year - must have been about 1984). My recollection of the electoral roll for Huntingfield is that - if my memory serves me correctly - it consisted of precisely nine names, three (or possibly four) of which were Griffin. The council seat was Huntingfield, Walpole and a couple of other villages, so that evened up the odds!

Me? I was wearing out shoe leather and car tyres for another, and in that area, equally hopeless cause!
