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.
One of the few upsides to opposition is that some of the brightest Special Advisers from our period in government can contribute publicly to the debate about what Labour needs to do.
