From talking to him and keeping an eye on what he's been up to he seems energetic and with his heart in the right place, so far as I can see. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kopek 1,989 Posted October 15 Share Posted October 15 The Younger Watson does present a new approach to politics, he may be different style to which we are used to but maybe, that is what we need to advance from the same old same old? It's about the 21 Gen elect really, Iwould have thought that Amanda W would have been a shoe in for this to advance her to MHK in 21? Perhaps Devon coul d now take this to give him a lift up in '21?
