For the first time in my life

I became eligible to vote in the summer of 1983, just after the notorious 'longest suicide note in history' Labour manifesto and the ensuing defeat which arguably led ultimately to 'New' Labour and contributed to the death of left wing politics in Britain.
Today, for the first time in my life, I will be voting Labour.

  1. Isn't there something in the bible about 'more rejoicing in heaven over one liberl, sorry sinner, repenting?
    Well done Sarah!
    From Lapworth to London and then back to Brum we've clocked 6 boats, us included, sporting 'Vote Labour' posters. Nothing on a boat from any of the other parties.
