The final post in the hunt for our missing MP.

Inspector Johnny Bratwurst, here with an important message. This is the final week of the 2024 election and your chance to make a positive difference on the Isle of Wight. This website was set up really for a bit of fun, posting the pictures for you to all to enjoy has been a highlight of this campaign, but it gets serious now.

Remember on Thursday if you are going to a polling station you need to bring photo ID. This is the first general election this has been required. You can see what types of ID is accepted here, but a passport or driving licence is the norm. If your ID has expired you can still use it.

Bob Seely has been the Isle of Wight MP for 7 years. During this time he has voted in favour of cutting local authority funding by £97m a year.

For all Bobs posturing that he is working for Islanders, he doesn't actually own a house on the Island despite earning over £500k as an MP. Has a severe lack of political judgement over who he supports and only last week lied about supporting Liz Truss.

Bob's disregard for his constituents is evident. He's mentioned ferries 23 times in parliament while mentioning Russia 70 times and China 62 times. During the height of the COVID crisis, when we were all making sacrifices and unable to visit loved ones, he broke lockdown rules to enjoy a BBQ. If he had any sense of honour, he would have resigned then.

Known as "seldom seen Seely," he only started showing concern for his seat when he feared losing it.

So our final image of the campaign is a hunt for Bob, in his natural habitat, the TV studio (clue, he’s trying to get a job).
