A Forse to be reckoned with?
As questions go, perhaps it was a low blow.
While interviewing Green party mayoral candidate Geoff Forse over the telephone yesterday I was glancing through his party’s press release on his candidacy.
It listed the elections that he’d previously stood in, and when a lull in the interview presented itself I saw the opportunity for a zinger.
“Geoff, you’ve stood in three general elections, two European elections, and every local election for two decades. How come you haven’t won any?”
Sorry Geoff.
