I was one of the constituents who waited patiently for more than an hour to see Ivor Caplin in his surgery.

If any Hove voter was in doubt as to where our MP stood on this unlawful war on Iraq, you can rest assured he is fully behind Tony Blair and fully out of touch with his voters.

I will never vote for Mr Caplin again and the only "trauma" I suffered last Friday night was the realisation we have this warmonger as our MP.

I suggest we all put our efforts into electing Socialist Alliance candidates at the next elections.
