Esther Rantzen to stand as MP (maybe)
Having just read this article

I would welcome her as my new MP as I'm certain the quality of stewardship she would bring to the town would be impressive :)
Edit: for the young-uns on here, Esther became nationally famous for this show, That's Life.

I've not felt the same about her since the...
... 'Accident Advice Helpline' adverts.
The TV adverts were made to resemble a studio discussion set and the company is not a 'helpline'. Make of that what you will.

^ Precisely this
After forging a career on consumer action this was the worst kind of sellout.
Thora Hird was dead by then, couldn't she have done Stannah ads or something?
