Is the Labour Candidate being funded by Unite

Has anyone received any glossy leaflets from the Labour Parliamentary candidate? I gather he is a member of Unite and I wonder if they are paying for some of his campaign. This would be worrying given how militant the union is. It certainly would make me question any support I might be thinking of giving him.

Has anyone received anything at all from the Labour candidate? Angie Bray for the Conservatives has been very quick off the mark with her leaflet about all the good things she's doing for the local community. I'd like to hear more from Bassam Mahfouz.

Which candidate? We have three constituencies.I hope you wish to consider the Liberal and other manifestos as well. I am sure you would like to make a more informed decision.

So does Angie Bray name her sponsors!! At least Unite is based in Britain and it's members pay taxes in Britain.

Yes the Liberals make the most sense on the economy. Yes Labour may have contributed to the economic crises but when the crunch came darling and co acted decisively even if then let the jolly good chaps at the banks off lightly. just can not imagine osborne being able to do the same. But then if we had listened to Uncle Vince would we have been in such a mess in the first place????

George, I meant Ealing Central, which is why I mentioned Angie Bray. Of course I want to know what all the candidates have to say, but having voted Labour in the past, I would like to hear more from Bassam Mahfouz. Sarah Edwards and Jon Ball are also in the running for my vote – if they can convince me they have the answers.
