Totnes Tory taunts Kilroy!

This report from South Devon, linked here, has local Tory Anthony Steen challenging Kilroy and Knapman as follows:-

Uk Independence Party politician Robert Kilroy-Silk won't even have a tail left to tuck between his legs if he takes on the Tories in Totnes, Anthony Steen has declared.

Suggestions that the UKIP MEP could win the Totnes constituency at the next General Election were laughed off by a confident Mr Steen who has held the Devon seat for the Conservatives for the last 21 years.

All publicity playing into UKIP's hands, no doubt designed to distract attention from their deliberate destruction of their own real chances of gaining a Westminster seat at Hartlepool. In a general election campaign no seat will ever be as potentially winnable for UKIP as Hartlepool looks today.

Were UKIP to field a high profile candidate of proven campaigning ability backed by frequent appearances from Kilroy and the financing of Paul Sykes what an upset could be engineered!!!!!!! We hear, however, that all is not sweetness and light as far as the latter is concerned with Mr Sykes place on the new Political Committee having been taken by Petrina Holdsworth - the new party chair!
