Shan Oakes for Haltemprice and Howden

The Green Party's candidate in the David Davis "42 days" by-election is Shan Oakes.

Shan is one of the founders of "Voice International" and she's #2 on the European elections list for the Yorkshire and Humber Green Party for next year.

She's a Green Party town councillor in Beverley. She's an investor in Triodos, a member of Sustrans, a trustee of the Development Education Centre in Hull since 1990, and a trustee for Indigo Moon Theatre since 2006.

The best reason to run is that David Davis isn't very civil libertarian. He's pro-capital punishment and voted for 28 day detention.

Derek Wall, one of the Green Party's two principal speakers:

"This by-election was supposed to be about civil liberties. But it's been called by a man who thinks it's okay for the government to lock you up for four weeks without even telling you what you're supposed to have done. He also believes that you should have no right to criticise the government within a mile of parliament. So the Green Party had to stand. Someone had to stand up for civil liberties."

Hose reels certainly are a vital device for that natural backyard. You should use reels to help keep hoses tidy and stop time-wasting tangles. Untangling a hose is most likely the least satisfying approach to invest your growing plants time. This inconvenience is readily prevented by getting a reel will purge any unneeded stress.

Heading down the road of self help for depressive disorders, you must keep the imagination in the pleasant status and avoid simply being introduced straight down. You should target the stuff in life that you receive satisfaction out of and surround oneself with people and items that are good. Do not forget that there exists pleasure about every single part.
