Party almost over for Labour


The Labour Conference comes to an end in Brighton later today, and thanks goodness for that.

I don’t know about you, but I am becoming rather sick at the sight of Gordon Brown, Peter Mandelson, Harriet Harman and Ed Balls being given free rein to talk down to us and tell “what the British people are thinking” day after day from the Conference platform and night after night on the news.

I’m out and about talking to so-called “ordinary people” much more often than they are and, with regard to Keighley and Ilkley, I can assure the Labour high command that local residents here have long since had enough of them.

Following, no doubt, yet another patronising speech from ambitious-beyond-her-talents Harriet Harman this morning, the Party Conference roadshow will move on to Manchester next week for the main event – the Conservative Party Conference.

I do hope that you, like me, will find what the Tories have to say much more inspiring and fresh that what we’ve been subjected to over the last few days from Labour.
