Late last night (early this morning) I tempted you with a bit of news! I have to confess that it was not the most cryptic piece of written work and the ever well informed Iain Dale was quicker off the mark than me.
For anyone still in the dark the news is that I was selected as the GLA candidate for the Bexley and Bromley constituency.
The final selection was a very close run thing and I think this is a reflection of both the quality of the finalists and how seriously London government is taken now that people have seen what Ken Livingstone is really like.
Matthew Scott of Bexley Conservative Future videoed the evening:

The brief is anti-Ken and we don't get much more anti-Ken than you, James. Well done and all the best with holding him to account and ultimately working towards a change for the benefit of London. Will there be a change of emphasis in your blog as a result of your new role?
Interesting video but dire music! Congrats James.
James, does this mean you are not going to stand for parliamentary seats anymore? You can move instead from the GLA to Mayor - the Guiliani of the Tories
Congratulations James! I'm sure you shall do a brilliant job!
This is brilliant news. Well done. You totally deserve it and will be bloody brilliant. Go give Ken a good kicking.
Well done James.
It's good to see that someone who cares made it.
Well done James - a great choice for a big job.
Thank you.
