The Dream Ticket?

OK so Harriet was not my first choice but she was from far my last. It is true polls do show she makes the ideal running mate for Gordon but for the most part her most important contribution came during the question time debate when she said the challenge is not to position ourselves in the centre, the Labour Party is the party of change and we must stick to our principles but at the same time reach out to the centre to win support for left wing policies. This is what we did when we introduced the minimum wage, increased National Insurance to fund the NHS and boosted International Development Aid. Created popular policies which were radical but did not engage in the dogmatic politics of division which kept us in opposition for so long.

There are a lot of supporters of other candidates who are disappointed but as far as I am concerned we have elected a progressive, Labour to the core and understands what it means to exist in a modern setting.
