Lib Dem Councillor Gets Onto Radio 5 with “Dire” Video

April 16th, 2009 at 6:44 pm

Lib Dem in 'gets on media' shocker

Congrats to Cllr Allan Witherick who managed to blag a spot on Radio 5′s Drive show by rapping his manifesto and sticking it on Youtube. They weren’t impressed – that awful Victoria woman was merciless and got him to admit it was dire, but as Allan pointed out: He got on the Radio, didn’t he?

His story also crops up in The Telegraph

I say good on him. Wish I could blag a spot on the Radio myself ;)
