I wonder if she was one of those who turned Boris down.

There’s absolutely no chance she would have turned him down! Remember this is the woman who will do anything for a photo opportunity!

There she is, live on Sky News now (at the end Downing Street) with Andrea Jenkins, Peter Bone, Daniel Kawczynski, Christopher Chope et al. For non Parliamentary geeks like me, that's the Johnson loyalist looney brigade.

The best thing is that every photo I've seen in the media (so far) of her supporters shows her almost completely blocked by others
hardly the best photo shoot for her.....

It will still take a lot to convince Dover District people to vote her out .
I was convinced she would come close to losing seat last election but she doubled the majority !

Dover district residents need to be asking themselves “what has Natalie Elphicke done for our area?”

Who do we think Natalie will support? My guess would be Braverman.

Disconcerting how many of the candidates are promising tax cuts that the country can't afford. Fishy Rishy seems to be standing alone on tha one.

Whichever candidate ends up giving her the most photo and self promotion opportunities.

I'm just trying to recall which ex Dover Tory MPs
Actually spoke to anyone apart from own supporters
They tend to stick with a safe crowd .
Peter Rees I saw in the White horse and he did speak to all .

Peter Rees was a good MP and sorted a small problem we had very quickly.
I also remember seeing Charlie chatting to the R. Dour cleaners and others near Morrisons, never seen Natalie out and about not even for one of her poxy photo shoots.

I spoke to Mr Prosser once, and I saw Natalie on the seafront a while ago reporting about something. I should have chatted to her then as appearances in Dover are few and far between, or as others have said, with a safe crowd!
I've just remembered, Natalie did come and speak to me and a couple of work colleagues when she was hanging onto an official visit of someone else. She came over and introduced herself as the local MP, we all just looked at her and said "we know", then she wanted a photo of her with us and we said no! Fun times

Peter Rees called at our family to speak to me when I was able to cast my first vote. It was a local election rather than a general election too!

Is there any democracy in the world which can just change the Prime Minister or President without its population having any say in the matter.
I am baffled how the news channels are telling us about the candidates and what they stand for as if we have any choice.

I saw Charlie boy at hustings (before he was disgraced) scheming with the lib Dems until he realised I was sitting in the next seat !
Charlie was safe with his own .
Naterlie shouldn't have to introduce herself !
And shoujdnt be about photo shoots .
As much as I disliked David Shaw for many reasons
He always made his own comments on replies to letters , and he was seen around the town .
Peter Rees is the only Tory one that I can see actually engages and mean it

Yes David shaw and certainly Peter Reece.Those two were not about photograph shoots.I will contribute from time to time but I will not have people I have never met put on libel comments.?
.Some people donot know me personally .
I hope that we don’t have a general election thrust on us .I have seen the write up re the chap who wishes to stand for Labour in Dover.I think our current MP needs to forget photo shoots.Visit people in their homes and see how much more improvement is needed in Dover.Not side with fancy schemes but looking at the reality of what Dover is about.

Hardly. That was the problem ....

Not correct Bob
Sue
David Shaw sadly spent most of his time in Scotland digging at a lab council
Whilst Dover burned
Peter Rees appeared more at home speaking with anyone .
I think we going to end up with failed Charlotte
I'm not so sure Naterlie would lose to her .
The guy lives in Tunbridge Wells that Sue refers to
