Canvassing with the Shadow International Development Minister
After early morning delivery, we meet with the Shadow International Development Minister Andrew Mitchell. I have known Andrew for many years, since he was the Member of Parliament for Gedling in Nottinghamshire. I remember the first occasion we met, a by-election for a council seat on the County Council. I had spent the day pounding the streets and in the evening, as everybody else went to the count, Andrew and I sat watching the evening news in someone’s front room.
