Harringay online

Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

From what I can make out the affable Tim Caines is the only serious Conservative candidate from Harringay & St Ann's wards.

One of my web scraper tools just threw up a blogpiece about Tim on arts blog Stingray. In this slightly odd piece the author uses a walk and conversation with Tim to consider the Conservatives' plans to support the Arts.

Tim comes across as a straightforward guileless type of a guy, very much as I found him when I met him for interview. Nonetheless, the author concludes that under the Conservatives the message seems to be that the arts would need to fend more for itself. Then at one point in their walk they come across the empty swimming pool in Clissold Park which the author says makes him think of a world without art: dry, and shallow. What, then is he trying to say by having Tim pose in the empty pool showing the Conservative manifesto?


A slightly odd piece indeed.

Not knowing very many other 27 year old Conservatives, I asked him about his motivations for joining. ‘Well, it’s a bit embarrassing, but I thought it would be a good way to meet girls,’ he told me as we strolled. Of course. Did it work? ‘No, actually most of the association turned out to be gay men.’

Absolutely classic! Don't worry Tim, Phillipa Stroud will sort that out.
Oh no she won't, John ^_^. Joking aside, I know Phillipa and she's cool with me being a 'homo' - usual pre-election crap from the Observer. JH (CC4SS)
