Bloody Hell.

This was a bit of a shocker.

I've had the benefit of speaking with Mark Oaten a couple of times. He always struck me as the sort of MP that knew his stuff, and it surprised me when he stepped out of the leadership campaign.

He would have made a good figurehead under different circumstances, poor bastard.

That's interesting - when I spoke with him he was my MP, it was always about local issues, but obviously not about Schools etc. - more central Winchester traffic, access, employment bits and pieces. Maybe my opinion of him was a little flawed.
