Of course you can ask, you can ask what you like.

I can even give you the answer.

The answer is that it is not true.

"The fundamental problem was that Richardson's obssesion with Michael Lunn destroyed his entire career."

I don't think that Richardson's political career was the only one that was ruined by that. It's fair to say that Lunn won't ever do anything more interesting than organise CF. Shame too, such a nice fellow.

There were a couple of decent candidates in my view. They didn't both get elected, but that's cliquey-CF for you! Fame over quality (see Patrick four bellies for a case in point)

2008-07-12T21:52:00.000+01:00

The fundamental problem was that Richardson's obssesion with Michael Lunn destroyed his entire career. This was coupled with the 'missing food hamper' scandal which rocked his campaign and ensured Rock surged to victory.

Regarding ABB she is a real fighter who won't give up. If you are a lesbian, gay or tansvestite she will speak up with you and make sure you walk tall in CF.

Good luck to her!

"The elections last year were a complete joke lined up with a selection of clowns for candidates. The result has been a full split in CF with Michael Rock being a rather uninspiring leader. Matt Richardson managed to single handedly ruin his political career."

The problem is that Rock is stuck with being uninspiring, whilst Richardson has another (highly remunerative) career. It's a variation on the Braddock/Churchill exchange.

Riiiight, so basically you will sit on it until you run for Chair IF she runs against you.

Fair game, seems to me you probably have nothing more than unsubstanciated rumours from less than reliable sources.

Have a good one

2008-07-12T17:47:00.000+01:00

Do you have examples of this 'disgusting blind ambition' that shows her to be a 'lying, manipulative fraud' or are you just using big words to try and demean her that bit more without a need to back up such comments?

The anonimity of the blog poster at its best.

Also, read what I said again.

I didn't say that she didn't want positions, I said that she didn't want positions that others wanted.

She does have ambition, which is something everyone in Politics should have a healthy dose of, but she doesn't necessarily covet positions like CF Chair, her goals are higher which I commend.

If none of us reached that little further than we ought to then there would be no progress in any area.

Shame that this is is the sort of thing that CF is judged on by external and to a degree internal people.

Pity, the naivity that I had when I joined the London scene last year and joined this CF has truly cleared away.

2008-07-12T17:24:00.000+01:00

haha careful there sunshine.you better watch your back cause she will stab you like does to everyone when she has to.

given the right circumstances she will stick the knife in you without thinking twice. she has no concept of loyalty and is the very worst example of disgusting blind ambition so don't give me that shit about her not wanting posistions.

get your head out of your arse and open your eyes.

seriously get a grip.

and jealous? jealous you say? I think not.. I prefer to be me than a lying, manipulative fraud.

2008-07-12T17:13:00.000+01:00

Destroyed is an interesting term.

Thing is there seems to be a lot of jealousy aimed at Anastasia Beaumont-Bott.

While some people just don't like the girl (no one can be liked by all) some people seem to be jealous that she is heading places others have no chance of getting to, and she's still young.

Her ambitions don't seem to tally with others and that’s what makes people jealous too. While others can't begin to get support for certain positions, Anastasia doesn't even want them - which makes others dislike her.

I pity all those who feel they must attack someone’s career paths and try to belittle someone else’s.

Are you that insecure in your own choices that you must do this or are you simply a pointless tool who derives pleasure from attacking someone who does what they do because they enjoy it and plan to affect change.

This truly is the problem with the world of young politics.

Very sad, very sad indeed.

2008-07-12T10:26:00.000+01:00

When I got my ballot through for the CF elections this year, I was appalled by just how dreadful they all were.

BUT as awful as the candidates were, if the democratic system was removed, it'd be even worse. The thing that really got me was the cliquey "forward together" thing a lot of them have. They were most of the worst candidates, but I fear that a clique like that would take over if they stopped the elections.

CF is awful and the people that stand for the NME are awful, but it can get even worse.

2008-07-12T10:13:00.000+01:00

Just to be clear 'Jeremy' it is Anastasia Beaumont-Bott.

Also, I know her well to know she hasn't said anything publically about running next year.

In fact only last night she told me who she believes would be the best candidate and from what I have seen recently, I absolutely agree.

She is far from a sycophant, she stands by what she believes in.

I have taken the time to get to know Anastasia over the last few months and she has shown nothing but a desire to help people mixed with a tenacious spirit.

I could name quite a few people who could be classed as 'eg-obsessed' but Anastasia Beaumont-Bott is not one of them.

Her work in Social Action and with LGBTory is astounding and should be a sign of a change in the way people see the Tories, but sadly there are those amongst us that would rather act like insolent children and throw their toys out of the pram because they can't have it their way.

Have fun 'Jeremy'

Thanks
