We'll begin with the usual disclaimer: Brigg Blog has no political affiliations.
In Wrawby Street yesterday morning (Sat) we were stopped for a quick word by Jacky Crawford, who will be contesting Brigg & Goole for Labour at next spring's general election.
She was with Brigg's Coun Mike Campion and Coun Donald Campbell. (Picture to follow of them on their stall).
Also in Brigg yesterday, though we didn't happen to see him, was Andrew Percy, Conservative MP for Brigg & Goole. Andrew later had lunch in the White Hart, he revealed on Twitter. He likes to support local businesses and you may recall an earlier picture we used him of him buying items at Brian's DIY.
As ever, Brigg Blog strives for balanced coverage. Other parties involved in the 2015 election are welcome to contact us.
