I'll be writing to my sister in Gloucester and asking her to vote for Sophy Gardner as a matter of principle.
And there was I thinking that Mrs Pankhurst's Suffragette's had won a hard fought battle for women to have an independent vote!

If you are doing this just because she was in the military that makes you equally silly in my opinion.

As for another poster's "not being a Gloucester voter then her political views are of no interest to me" - I would strongly suggest that they are! If Ms Gardner gets into Westminster then her views will have a voice that could affect every single one of the UK population, especially if we head towards another 'hung parliament'.
