Lucy Rigby, Labour’s pushy candidate in Lincoln, quit her job as a right-on councillor in trendy metropolitan Islington to be parachuted up 141 miles up north. Local Labour members were furious when she won her selection against two Lincoln residents, one commenting that it showed a “middle-class party looking for middle-class MPs”. Now carpetbagger Rigby has stuck two fingers up at her local voters once again. Her Christmas card sent to constituents encouraged them to “Support Lincoln Businesses by Buying Locally this Christmas”. Which wasn’t the cleverest Christmas message, since the cards were printed in Nottingham. Union funded, obviously. Slow clap.
