Subject: RE: 51st Sidmouth festival
Unfortunateley the website which carries my so called political history hasn't quite got the story correct. I was indeed elected as Britain's first ever Raving Loony to a District Council in 1991 and took a seat from the sitting Conservative. The following day I was elected to the Town Council as an Independent (No party politics on Sidmouth Town Council) I was elected to the County Council in 1993 as an Independent. I joined the Conservative Party in 1997. Hope that that has set the record straight..... now how about concentrating on Sidmouth Folk Week 2005 and beyond....... Over to you Lizzie
