Final Furlong

Just 4 days left of campaigning until 1 May. In Oxted South although there are five candidates standing past history suggests it will be a battle between Labour and Conservatives. I am not sure how many local residents have been hit by Brown's 10p tax blunder, but I hope it gives us all yet another reason to vote for a Conservative candidate on Thursday.

* In years to come I hope that the best reason to vote in a local election will be because it will make a difference locally, but until real power is given back from Whitehall, one of the best reasons will be to hasten the end of this centralising, bureaucratic and incompetent government.
