Isn't this getting a bit like the Erich von Stroheim character in Sunset Boulevard, still loyal to Norma Desmond. Don't worry Tony - you're still big, it's just the politics that got small!
Clearly a perceptive chap if ever I read one. But I think you'll find that the politics are about to get a lot bigger. It's just me and my councillors who are suffering from lack of focus.
At least I'm addressing Tony, whereas two of my Hackney Labour Group team, Cllr. Mulready-Jones and Cllr. Kelly, are busy conducting a raging debate over Zionism in the pages of the "Hackney Groveller". A big issue, but perhaps not the big issue.

The creator of this petition doesn't seem quite as keen on unity with his other website (gordonbrown.org) which just publishes attacks on Brown. I've no problem with attacking Brown, incidentally, but it does suggest a certain lack of principle on the part of Mr. David Taylor (whoever he might be!)
