Doorstep Activism

Warrington, where I live, is split into two parliamentary constituencies the boundary being, pretty much, the Mersey. They are represented by "the Helens" - Jones for the North and Southworth for the South. Apparently there's going to be some major work on redirecting the Mersey as we will be switching Helens at the next election. Both Helens are in fairly safe seats - I normally get no election publicity except from the very fringe parties.

A message to Labour ditherers

To all those Labour MP who are currently dithering over the abolition of the 10p rate of income tax. What the fuck happened?!?!? You've known about this since you cheered Gordon Brown's announcement in the April 2007 budget. You knew about this when you later elected him leader of the party. Now it's actually come in, is it really a surprise?
