Green Party Against Tactical Voting Shock!
The hope of a Portillo moment in Jeremy Hunts constituency did not materialise. Now it turns out he has to thank the Green Party for holding the seat.
Knowing the result would be close, the Godalming Greens decided to stand down their candidate to help tactical voters unseat Hunt.
The plan was thwarted by the Green Party national leadership who parachuted an unknown candidate in to replace the candidate who stood down. That candidate got 1,243 votes on election day and Hunt breathed a sigh of relief winning by 891 votes.
Meanwhile the candidate who stood down and members of the local Green party have been expelled for 5 years.
What a bunch of amateurs.
