One of my favourite aspects of Patriotic Alterntive is that our community events are embraced by so many people and offer a light hearted break from political work. This year’s PA pumpkin carving competition is a great example of our community focus and it was great to see so many wonderful entries – from individuals, couples and families. Here is the winning entry, and what an incredible piece it is! Well done, a well-deserved victory for the East Midlands and their star pumpkin carving activist.
