Darren Johnson on the web

Just saw this YouTube video this morning of our Parliamentary candidate, Darren Johnson. I thought it was excellent, so I'm passing it along.



There is also an article about him and Lewisham Greens at Red Pepper, which is worth a read.

More general stuff about Darren can be found at Darren for Lewisham Deptford.

Good odds on Darren

The bookies are taking bets on the various parties chances at the General Election and the News Shopper reports that the Greens are doing well in the Lewisham Deptford constituency.

They state that;

Labour are also the favourites in the Lewisham Deptford constituency with odds of 1/66 followed by the Green Party with 12/1.

Odds of a Lib Dem victory are 33/1 while Conservatives fall behind at 100/1, which is the same odds as Crystal Palace winning the FA cup this year.

That might even be worth a flutter. It's good to see the bookmakers think that Lewisham Greens will come a strong second but I'd like us to do one better if we can.

Launching Darren Johnson for Lewisham Deptford

Today we officially launched Darren's campaign for the Lewisham Deptford's Parliamentary seat. Caroline Lucas, the Green Party's leader, came down to wish him well and I filmed the pair of them at some local spots.

It's only the second time I've put any video together so we'll see how it turns out. They must have faith in me though as they insisted on a group shot to commemorate the occasion. Lack of coffee and the chill, cutting wind explain the disgruntled look on my face!
