"Not egocentric or shouty enough and still too much of a true socialist." so true June, so true.
I've been in a union for years and this week got an email to say since part of my subs go into the political fund wot goes to the labour party I can vote in the leadership election. (I am ashamed to say I'd forgotten I'd chosen to do this with my money, you can choose it to go elsewhere, so when I joined I must have been feeling keener on them than I am now... in my defence I guess it's a way of grass roots making themselves felt up in the rarified air). So this means I do actually get a vote apparently. So he will be getting mine.
Some might feel any shift to the left would make Labour even more unelectable. But unless they do move to the left I can't see any point in their existence. You're not really 'opposition' if you agree with most of the things the vermin say, surely?
