So the Mail on Sunday have published a frontpage story claiming that Samantha Cameron once voted Labour; I suppose we all do silly things sometimes, but on this occassion she didn't - according to CCHQ, Mrs Cameron not only voted Conservative in 1997 but took 5 weeks off work to campaign for her husband in Stafford.
However, even if she did, should we expect political spouses to vote the same way as their partners? After all, I assume that Mr and Mrs Bercow vote different ways (him being the former right wing MP turned Speaker, her being the Labour local government candidate).

Churchill's wife always voted Liberal - sensible lady!!
To be honest Antony. I couldn't care less. It will not maximize my utility any further is she has voted Labour in the past or not. Unless it depended on one sole vote.
The local issues I care about are as follows:
(1) turning lights off in and around Norwich, (2) Closing Day Care Centers, (3) Cutting funding to special educational needs.
This seems to me to be a microcosm of a Conservative government and the Tory cutting machine at work.
Do you endorse the switch off and cutting funding to special educational needs? I know the Norwich Tories stance on Day Care Centres contrasts with the County -so does that mean you have a disagreement?
Perhaps you could talk about those issues instead of whether Samantha Cameron once voted Labour or not.
