Is there anyway back from this?

Dear Comrades

I write as a Labour PPC and as an active trade unionist, when I say we need change.  We need the unions to help us financially and we need Gordon to drastically change direction.  When I talk to my union colleagues (Labour loyalists), they are stating that they are not going to vote in the next election.  They will not vote Tory, they will not vote at all.  I represent caretakers, technicians and some teaching staff and I can tell you all of them say the same thing, where has the Labour party gone!

I say as clear as I can and I am sick of saying it.  Listen to members please!  There is loyalty and there is studpidity.  I feel we reached this point!  Henley is the last straw!

Newsnight Poll - Cruddas to win deputy leadership

It seems to me that there is only one person who can admit to mistakes in their past and has the honesty to become the next deputy leader and that is John Cruddas.  He should have backed John McDonnell, but that is in the past now.  He is honest and to the point.  He easily out shone 4 ultra blair babes and decent performing Harriet Harman on the night and the Newsnight poll showed this.  Lets just say I feel this it is a done deal for Cruddas.  I have toured many consituencies recently (outside of london) and I can tell you where cruddas is not winning he is coming second and many trade unionists will back him.  Be warned he is not complacent. PS I will have grim and jonesy back on board even if I have to read a page of JR blogs.
