Campus Tories choose to fight real election...
Edinburgh University Conservative Association
will not be fielding a candidate for this year's Rectorial Elections at Edinburgh University. Speaking to Tory Bear their Chairman Harry Cole said "EdConservatives have decided the best way they can help the students of Edinburgh University is to see a Conservative Member of Parliament elected in the Edinburgh South constituency. Our candidate Neil Hudson is a member of staff at the university and instead of wasting resources engaging in internal elections EdConservatives will focus on seeing Neil and the other local candidates returned to Westminster where they can represent our student population much more effectively than chairing the University Court"Guess Boris won't be avenged after all! He hasn't done too badly since he lost three years ago though...

sssssssssh
A shame. P&P and Labour needed a good kicking this time round. Should have gone for a unity candidate.
More likely they were too lazy to get a candidate, they should be pulling all the stops out in supporting the Edinburgh South candidate anyway
I take it what you really mean is you couldn't find anyone?
