The enemies of our MP, James Gray, march on, relentless to get him deselected and replaced with one of their own.

This small rabble of bitter and twisted souls, many of whom don’t even live in North Wiltshire, foam at the mouth as they work out new ways of damaging someone who has become an exceptionally good local MP.

Their latest action is typical of their approach. They have flooded the media with information and gossip that has been trawled over many times before in a bid to prompt yet another deselection meeting.

Yet there are no new facts to that which the local association members have already voted on.

Apart from one.

Yes, James Gray got married to the woman who now shares his life.

Is that the crime he should be deselected for?

Of course not. The truth is they want to get rid of him because they want to replace him with an old fashioned shires MP.

These people have tried to engineer the media by stating that an unknown source stated that David Cameron described Gray as a ‘s***’ at a wedding, which was immediately denied by Cameron.

These are the politics that have brought politics into disrepute. We should say that enough is enough. Let’s concentrate on what really matters – the economy, the unemployed, our armed forces and our quality of life.

It’s a time when we need the James Grays to protect us, not to risk bringing in unknowns who are being manipulated by those peddling their own prejudices and ambitions.
