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.
Postscript to the post below: if you do want to take votes off the Lib Dems, the way to do it is to attack them (as proven in local elections in Hackney, Islington, Tower Hamlets, Lambeth and Southwark) not try to position yourself closer to them.
