What’s all this fuss about Parmjit Dhanda being reshuffled out of his position as a junior minister? Harriet Harman has put her irritating, arrogant pious hand-wringing hat on again, and has decided to kick up a stink. Source. I really don’t understand this contemporary left wing logic. They say that ethnic minorities simply must be represented [...]

Harriet Harman has some cheek. She is the prim and proper daughter of radical upper class types, who has spent a lifetime cajoling others in the benefits of socialism, but failing to live up to her own words. She has been caught out with dodgy donations ; she has, like other New Labour apparatchiks, weasled her way round the education system for her own children whilst espousing "local schools" for...

What’s the leadership fallout from Manchester? Gordon Brown - better conference than might have been expected. Speech OK with party activists and might expect a poll boost. Looks like he’ll survive at least until the 2009 local and Euro elections. Good conference. Harriet Harman - will have upset Tory supporters with the personal nature of her attacks [...]
