Journalist John Sweeney just announced as the Lib Dem candidate here. Very leftfield but what do I know?

Was being suggested as the LibDem equivalent of Seb Payne and Paul Mason, but he has actually found a seat before either of them  |

It was difficult to imagine that any party would find a candidate as obnoxious as Andrew Mitchell to stand here but you can always count on the Lib Dems

I can't decide if I loath this or detest this.
I seem to remember he joined the LDs a little while back? But does he have any kind of campaigning experience? Can he lead a team?

Will he be helping elsewhere or making a fool of himself/the LDs though? |

Why is he saying he'll make Ukraine an election issue? John Sweeney's book and work around Ukraine (he lived here) is the issue for him? |

Here he is, Sweeney, putting his mouth round a traffic cone to treat it like a loudhailer. Not only does it look ridiculous, but it's a bit unhygienic if you ask me.
