Bude, Boscastle and Port Isaac in 1955



From my Six of the Best 559:
"A truly wonderful film of a summer holiday in Bude in 1955," claims Paul Walter. And he is right. It really is wonderful. No doubt it will appear on this blog after a decent interval has elapsed.

Keith Vaz has deleted his Twitter account


A surprising move from such a publicity-hungry politician.

Featured on Liberal Democrat VoiceLater. A lot of people on Twitter are claiming he has deleted his Facebook account too.

Even later. He's back.

The caves beneath Nottingham Castle


Last Friday was a Bank Holiday, so naturally Nottingham Castle was closed. But there are exciting plans for it, as the Nottingham Post reported a couple of years ago:
Nottingham Castle is to be revamped into a "world-class tourist attraction" with plans for a £24 million redevelopment. 
The project is designed to double the number of visitors to 400,000 a year by celebrating its history and making more of the Robin Hood legend. 
New features will include a redesigned and extended museum telling the history of the wars, protests and riots that have centred on the castle over the years. 
The plans also include opening up the caves beneath Castle Rock and installing a glass lift from Brewhouse Yard up to the castle.
It is already possible to take a guided tour through the caves beneath the castle.

Mike Storey to visit Church Stretton and Bishop's Castle

A good write up for the Liberal Democrat peer in the Shropshire Star:
Lord Mike Storey is the Lib Dem spokesman on education in the House of Lords and will be visiting two south Shropshire towns whose leisure centres both receive funding via schools, and face a shortfall of tens of thousands of pounds due to cuts. 
Lord Storey, who was a headteacher and also leader of Liverpool City Council, is expected to visit Church Stretton on January 22, where the future of the town’s swimming pool is being reviewed. 
He will then visit Norbury Primary School, near Bishop’s Castle area, and the SpArC Centre in Bishop’s Castle, which is also threatened by cuts.
The report also quotes Charlotte Barnes, the Liberal Democrat councillor for Bishop's Castle:
"Our leisure centres contribute to the well-being of our residents, they help to keep people healthy and happy. 
"They must save the care budgets a fortune and of course they are one of the few places to offer young people activities in our more isolated areas."
The scale of the cuts being inflicted on council spending represents an area of vulnerability for the Tories. David Cameron, for one, has not grasped what George Osborne is doing to local services.

I hope the Lib Dems will take up this issue in the way that Mike Storey and Charlotte Barnes are in Shropshire. Such a campaign will mean more to our traditional voters than a call for further tax cuts.

Remembering Brian Niblett

I was very sorry to learn of the death of Brian Niblett from the excellent obituary on Liberal Democrat Voice.

My chief memory of Brian is of an afternoon I spent driving around rural Leicestershire with him and his wife.

I was helping them find some of the more obscure addresses of Liberal Democrat members so they could deliver Brian's campaign literature as he strove to be first on our East Midlands list for the 1999 Euro elections.

As Lib Dem Voice says, he was the early frontrunner in that contest. But he was to be overtaken by a smooth young Eurocrat called Nick Clegg.

If Nick had not been first on the East Midlands list he would not have got into the European parliament. That, in turn, would have made it much harder for him to inherit Sheffield Hallam from Richard Allan.

On such things do the history of political parties turn.
