I'm not particularly surprised by that nomination. If I had to guess which candidate Sedgefield would have supported, Hazel would have been my guess...with Johnson second.
Btw, Byers' CLP nominated Cruddas

That they have consistently bad taste?

That ultimately we are all comrades and keen to demonstares loyalty to our friends and allies, but also that Sedgefield is clearly dominated by people who want to believe that everything is hunky dorky when infact it is clearly not
P.S I though Johnson was the official Blairite candidate? Or was that Benn?

Hackney North and Stoke Newington went for Cruddas tonight by a margin of 2 to 1.

Sedgefield's Kiss of Death?

Results from tonight's Tower Hamlets GC.
Cuddas had a fairly emphatic win
Harman had no votes
Johnson second but a way behind given JimFitzpatricks endorsement and presence at meeting.
Benn campaign a bit cheeky - 3 of his staff turned up but who have never ever done any work for the party locally
Cruddas endorsed by ex-Council Leader Michael Keith
Plently of frustration amongst sensible Cruddas supporters that their candidate also backed but non-campaigning hard left
Lots of evidence of Cruddas / Blears AND Blairs / Cruddas support - from members who take their electioneering seriously

Yep, toast. Which is a shame. But she did put her head above the parapet.
