Since Louise Bagshawe ( she of chick-lit fame) also known as Louise Mensch is leaving the country to join her Husband Mr Mensch in New York this has triggered a by-election in Corby.
It is a marginal seat, and Louise had a 1951 vote majority in the 2010 election.
There are several contenders, the Tories have yet to decide who is fielding the election for them but a number of sources are mentioning Andrew Strauss.
The Labour candidate is already chosen as is the Monster raving Loony party, along with UKIP who are fielding Margot.
Why am I standing? Whats my connection to Northamptonshire?
I used to be a junior doctor in Kettering, in the field of Psychiatry, and I would often visit Corby for interest.
The Scottish accent was more familiar to me as I studied Medicine in Scotland.
At that time it did not have a railway station.
I have always enjoyed my time in Northamptonshire and loved the rambling countryside along with the Eleanor Cross at Geddington which is not far from Corby.
I am happy to stand for the Young Peoples Party and to perhaps look after the Corby constituency for the residents.
