North Cornwall MP Scott Mann is through to the final of the Parliamentary darts tournament. He is due to play Scottish Nationalist MP Gavin Newlands, in front of thousands of spectators, as part of the World Darts Championship event at the Alexandra Palace on Thursday (22nd December.)
“It’s a Cornwall versus Scotland final and all I can say is that I will do my best,” said Mr Mann. “There were 32 Members of Parliament who entered, and now we’re down to the final two.
“I started playing darts several years ago, at the Wadebridge Conservative Club, and I never imagined that one day I would be playing on such a stage as this. I used to play in the Friday night league in Wadebridge, against other pub teams, and I really enjoyed it.
