I WAS sorry about the death of the former MP for Bolton South East constituency, Mr David Young.
I had known David for some years and it was a pleasure to work with him in elections, and also to attend district meetings with David and his first wife, Grace, at the old Wood Street Social Club.
I remember one election where David and I were canvassing Breightmet and he showed me how to use a loud-hailer to address people from his car.
I was sorry when he wasn't selected to carry on as an MP for Bolton South East in 1994.
My thoughts go out to Vera and his relations.
