Tony Blair's recent allegation that the Conservative Party is seeking a low turnout in the election is desperate smearing on his part.

In reality, he knows his Government is so disliked by his own party's supporters that it is they who he is frightened will not turn out.

I also look forward to Ivor Caplin condemning the action of those who flyposted election posters supporting him across Hove on Friday night, once again adding to the unkempt look of Hove which his party's councillors on Brighton and Hove City Council seem helpless to control.
