Janice Spalding - why vote for me?
It has been a week since I got the phone call about my mother's death and it still seems a bit unreal that she has gone. I suppose that won't hit me until I fly up to Newcastle this Sunday. So why am I sharing this with you? Well it has made me stop and think what am I doing standing in this election? What is my purpose? What do I think I shall achieve? Will I make a difference? I know I don't have the answers to all these questions but I can try - if you don't try you will never know.
