It turns out David Morris, the Tory MP for Morecambe and Lunesdale, doesn’t know how to spell the name of his own constituency.

As someone on Twitter pointed out, on leaflets distributed around the local area, Morris forgot the ‘b’ in Morecambe.
You can’t really blame him, after trying (and failing) to get elected as MP for Blackpool South in 2001 and for Camarthen West and South Pembrokeshire in 2005, he might have trouble remembering exactly which constituency he’s MP for, let alone how it’s spelt…
