Another poster boy

Ed Fordham billboard

I’M sure when Chris Philp, the Conservative election challenger in Hampstead and Kilburn, posted a billboard of himself across the constituency, this unprecedented act of local promotion drew were a few sneers from his Lib Dem competitor Ed Fordham. Did that happen? Maybe I’m mistaken, as look what’s just appeared up in  Hillgrove Road… Ed on a hoarding.

People like Alastair Campbell have claimed the death of the election poster is nigh. The message clearly hasn’t got through to candidates in north Camden. Billboards for local candidates were once unheard of, now they are the fashion of the day.

    I’d love to see billboards of Jo Shaw in H&STP; voters will come out in their tens of thousands to vote AGAINST her. One of George Lee will give Frank an 18,000 majority…Bring it on

    Glenda doesn’t need a poster – she’s got two oscars and loads of name-recognition.

    Btw Eddie F’s poster hardly says Lib Dem on it, people might see that as a bit of a joke…
