Sounds interesting and I will definitely try to attend.
No one has yet started a thread on the election on this site but perhaps thats a result of general dismay at recent events and concern about politics in general.
As an aside, there does seem to be a local competition for the biggest and most brash party signage- there is a particularly large sign up in the garden of a private house on Honor Oak Road near the junction of Westwood Park, which I understand has nearly caused cars to crash as some drivers thought it was an emergency stop sign and have braked suddenly. I also understand that it breaches planning legislation due its size and that the Council are ordering its removal. Interesting stuff.
