The people

It has been a really odd , but pleasent day today.
The reason behind it was Question Time last night which I have not actually seen yet as it was on too late for me as I had to get up for work at 4:30 this morning , but I do know that first estimates from the BBC is that it was watched by about 8 million people which is pretty good going.
Anyway I went to work this morning and it was not quite 7am when the first person approached me and asked if I had seen QT which I had not , this guy Keton is an asian guy who I have know for sometime and said he watched like alot of his friends did and it showed Mr Griffin not in the best possible light and that it would do "my party" some real good as people are begining to recognise my car and the flags and magnets I have on it.
He said we needed to get out and spread the word so more people knew of us and to talk to as many people as possible as the votes will flow.
As the morning progressed a driver and about 7 other people spoke to me in the same tone in the warehouse and some even mentioned the EDL as well , I think I may have gained about 50 votes according to was said but it will be when that "X" is put in that box when we will see.
Later at breakfast more was said and a lady joined the table who obviously wanted to chat with me but could not get a word in and I ran out of time.
At lunch I was asked if we had a candidate standing in Haringay which as far as I am aware we do not , which is ashame and the lady rejoined me and she was able to speak and said about the ED and also my car and that her and her husband had chatted about me and that if I am in thier area they would both vote for me.
The reasoning behind this is as she said I am happy to put myself up and on the line to stand for my beliefs and the beliefs of the country and that part of that ment immigration and withdrawl from europe , she knows there is more to it , but it is good to hear.
The whole day has been like this and the vibe that I have been getting is really good , it actaully made it a pleasure to be at work , I still need to see QT with Nick on it and see what has been said , I saw some on the news but would like to see the whole programme.
I feel we need to build on this and make sure people know who we are and if I have the energy Today or Monday I and my wife will go and stand outside my local underground station and hand out leaflets to the people on the way home from work.
