Y’know, I would consider this all worthwhile if she’s now appointed to the Lords and made Culture Secretary again. The reaction would be something to behold. Don't get your hopes up.

Is there actually any official confirmation she has resigned? I can't see any confirmation of her appointment on gov.uk

An e-mail or letter apparently sent to her has been posted on this thread but as of yet there has been no formal announcement from the Treasury. Ordinary you get an announcement like this www.gov.uk/government/news/three-hundreds-of-chiltern--16

The quote I pasted in earlier was from Nadine Dorries' twitter feed, just to really set the conspiracy theories going...

The ignorance of many journalists is striking.An article appearing in the Biggleswade Today local newspaper suggests that Polling Day could be as early as 28th September. They clearly haven't a clue!

That's the interesting question. My current inclination is that Labour is probably slightly ahead; it also comes down to whether Gareth Mackey does end up running or not, as him not running probably gives the Lib Dems a larger pool of potential voters. The Greens and Reform will probably both do well enough to keep their deposits. I really think it could end up going in any direction. I think all of Labour, the Tories, and the Lib Dems will exceed 15%, at least.

Hopefully Labour. If the people of Mid Bedfordshire following up electing Dorries by doing something even more stupid like electing a Lib Dem they really do deserve rubbish representation.

She got the job! Dear Nadine I am writing to confirm that the Chancellor of the Exchequer has this morning appointed you to be Steward and Bailiff of the Three Hundreds of Chiltern. Your appointment continues until determined by a subsequent appointment to this Stewardship. I will inform the Speaker of the House of Commons next. Best wishes… What happens if someone wants to run again, Carswell-style?
