                          Indeed he did Cloughers - Sedgefield, which in these parts is almost a City with a racecourse, an Aldi and everything!

                          Like you a good man in a crisis.

                            And of course the Parliamentary constituency of a certain former PM. Which has Funchal to do with the H!
