Following Eye on Moseley’s lengthy campaign to get Ken Hardman to, once again, stand as the runner up in Moseley’s local elections, we can now announce victory. Nominations for the exulted post of Moseley Councillor closed to today and included the shock nomination of Mr Hardman himself. We have to admit that although Eye on Moseley is in no way partisan in these affairs, every right thinking contributor gave a little cheer.
In the interests of political fairness, we should point out that some other people will also be standing in May’s Election:
Robert A. Grant (Socialist Alliance)
Dave Jepson (Labour)
Martin Mullaney (Liberal Democrat)
Mohammed Sharif-Malik (People’s Justice Party)
Nick Whittingham (Green Party)
The mouth watering prospect of Martin Mullaney and Ken Hardman going at it in St Columba’s church hall will surely bring the people of Moseley out onto the streets.
It is thought that this radical change of thought was brought about by a promise from his lovely wife, Shirley, that if he succeeds this time round, he will indeed get a home made crab supper.
Look out for our unrivalled election coverage a little closer to the time. With pundits from as far away as Swanshurst Lane, we expect to tell you the matters that really matter for the people of Moseley.
We’d just like to take this opportunity to say welcome back Ken and let’s get ready to rumble.
