    David Davis: now with added diversity

    Just a quickie: the header graphic on the David Davis website has now been edited to show a bit of ethnic and age balance. However, data from the 2001 Census shows Haltemprice and Howden to be 98.2% white, and 24.5% over 60. On that basis, Iโ€™d probably have opted for more older faces, rather than more ethnic faces. And in the 42 days context, I guess you could make a case for an obviously Muslim person. But hey, at least it shows theyโ€™re listening. Theyโ€™ve also added comment functionality on the โ€˜blogโ€˜, plus a rudimentary forum. Itโ€™s a start.
