Chris Rennard has written to tell us of the very positive response to Ben's campaign and of Tory blunders.
Chris writes-
I'm writing this in Bromley just after a hugely successful walkabout with Ben Abbotts and Menzies Campbell. They had a really positive reception and had a great time - and not just because the weather here is so good !
With only two days to go in the Bromley by-election, you may have seen how the Tory campaign is going from blunder to blunder.
Yesterday the Telegraph reported how the campaign may have broken the law: http://click.cminteractive.com/?4opvQSC1=855952
There are many positive signs for us, including the odds on us winning now shortening rapidly at the bookies, whilst Labour's odds have gone out to 300 - 1 !
Meanwhile the local Bromley Times newspaper has a good round-up of some of the many other problems their campaign has suffered: http://click.cminteractive.com/?4opvQSAp=855952
What a contrast with our candidate Ben Abbotts - a popular local councillor, who is going down very well on the doorstep !
But he needs your help to get the votes in the ballot box by 10pm on Thursday.
If you can make it to the constituency in person, that is the most important thing you can do to help the party this week. Details are at http://click.cminteractive.com/?4opvQSDD=855952 - and on polling day the office will be open from 5am.
Alternatively, you can come in to Cowley Street on Thursday to help with phoning - contact s.morris@libdems.org.uk
Please do also pass this message on to other people in your local party. I've sent it to your colleagues for whom we have an email address in our membership records, but that won't reach all of them.
With best wishes - and hope to see you soon here in Bromley!

PS Weather forecast is very good - so remember your sunscreen when you come to help !
