BROMSGROVE Tories officially launched their General Election bandwagon on Monday with a little help from Angus, their candidate's seven-month-old son.

Sporting a "Vote for Mummy" T-shirt, he appeared to be eager to get on with the campaign when he posed for the cameras with mum Julie Kirkbride at the Unionist Club, in Kidderminster Road.

Miss Kirkbride won the Bromsgrove seat at the first time of asking four years ago.

She said: "It has been a great privilege to have been Bromsgrove's MP for the last four years.

"I am standing again on the policies of the Conservative Party and my own record of dedication to the people of Bromsgrove."
