A young Labour Party member in the North West, Sam Dent, has organised a debate and band night at teh Citadel Theatre in St Helens, Merseyside. Details are below.
 
But I have to say this is exactly the sort of thing the Party needs if it is to have a future. We need to be fun and we need to have a thriving grassroots that actually does things outside of delivering leaflets.
 
Sam is only 17, please support this event if you can. If you can't then leave a comment below encourage him to keep up the good work.

Labourhome has been helping the Labour opposition leader on Liverpool city council, Joe Anderson, to take back the city for Labour. He needs 5 seats for NOC and 11 seats for a clear majority.

There is clear potential here for a high-profile victory for Labour on what will be a 'challenging' local elections night. The Lib Dems have spent the last 12 months engaged in in-fighting and turning the council into the 'worst in the country'.

A story to gladden all our hearts!
