A blog by Luke Akehurst about politics, elections, and the Labour Party - With subtitles for the Hard of Left. Just for the record: all the views expressed here are entirely personal and do not necessarily represent the positions of any organisations I am a member of.
There must be some political significance to this - I have overtaken Sandwell Council's self-proclaimed Old Labour blogger Bob Piper http://councillorbobpiper.blogspot.com/ by the narrowest of margins 24-23 - on the Bloggers4Labour most recommended posts: http://www.bloggers4labour.org/recommended.jsp

Yes, this is proof, if proof were needed that Blairism is not dead and that TB should change his mind and seek a fourth term as PM.
