Curiously we are contemporaries in age (he's a year younger) and were both educated in Durham (though not at the same school). <br /><br />From Dehenna Davison (Bishop Auckland) not a word either. Her two Tory colleagues, Richard Holden (North West Durham) and Paul Howell (Sedgefield) both acknowledged my communication while insisting that, following parliamentary custom, they could not advocate on behalf of a non-constituent. While this is technically true, my point was that they all represent ex-Labour voters who I'm sure took Boris Johnson's commitment to the masses over the classes seriously and the Cummings affair (particularly his refusal to acknowledge error) would seem to run counter to such a pledge. <br /><br />My own MP, Mary Foy, has expressed her dissatisfaction, but as a Labour MP she has no incentive not to do so.Jeremy Bonnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16915767119353670952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35274730.post-42886800901857421212020-05-31T13:24:16.159+01:002020-05-31T13:24:16.159+01:00Only ten days on now, but any responses?Only ten days on now, but any responses?Alto en chamadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07099000363883633775noreply@blogger.com
