The Conservative Party prospective parliamentary candidate for Halesowen and Rowley Regis has resigned. Yesterday he said that Enoch Powell's "Rivers of blood" speech was right.
Whatever the arguments around Powell's 1968 speech, anyone commending the speech will face the same fate as Powell all those years ago. So Nigel Hastilow has resigned, before he was sacked! It's a shame that unthinking people without the necessary skills to be politically astute are selected as parliamentary candidates.
Just what was he thinking?
Squiffy.
