The awful self-publicist Esther Rantzen, who will be standing as an independent candidate in the Luton South constituency at the general election, writes in the Daily Mail that there is a conspiracy afoot to make her lose.
If this is true it is the first good news of the pre-election period.
The conspirators have apparently chosen the cunning wheeze of putting up a candidate against her, which is...er... the traditional way of trying to make another candidate lose.
The last time I saw Esther Rantzen she was in a television advert for one of those ambulance chasing solicitors. She must be desperate to get back in the public eye but it is an insult to the electorate of Luton South that she should use them to further her ambitions in this way. Elections to parliament are serious matters, not a springboard for the trivial and self-obsessed to improve their public recognition.
In the constituency there will be a full panoply of candidates from Labour, Conservative, Liberal, UKIP, Green and I urge the voters to choose any one of these to ensure this ghastly pseudo rights campaigner is roundly defeated.
