ELECTION FALLOUT 2010
GETTING out on the campaign trail proved painful for Royton South candidate Philip Harrison after he got bitten on the behind by a dog.
It’s the third time unlucky Mr Harrison has been bitten by a hound — but after medical treatment the determined Labour candidate was back out canvassing again.
The pain was worthwhile — he won the seat from the Liberal Democrats with a 563-vote majority.
