Interesting post over on LabourList from someone who has just joined the party. He or she, after giving the reasons behind their decision, concludes thus:
"
But most of all because last week, in the midst of its internal disorder, and while the Conservative Party’s plans for public spending cuts became clearer, this Labour government announced new efforts to tackle child poverty. I can’t envision any other party doing something like that at a time like this.That, then, is what it means to be Labour. That is why I have joined. And that is why there is still a place in British politics for the Labour party."
