Aylesbury hustings video

The hustings in Aylesbury were last Monday (29 October). There is an official video of the whole proceedings. I haven’t linked to it on this blog but I and others have tweeted the link over the past few days. The link’s broken now, and here’s the reason. Conservative candidate Anthony Stansfeld made an unsubstantiated allegation about Labour Councillor Jon Harvey accessing his (Stansfeld’s) bank account. Stansfeld has since apologised, but Harvey has got the Council to withdraw the video until the correction can be added to it in some way.
