UNISON/Compass/Tribune Rally

This is the first of a selection of posts and pictures with brief comments about fringes, rallies and seminars that I attended last week during conference that I didn’t have the time to post.

Sunday evening - Can the public services deliver the new "progressive consensus”?

Chaired by Compass Neal Lawson with Ed Milliband MP, Douglas Alexander MP, Angela Eagle MP and Heather Wakefield (from UNISON standing in for Dave Prentis).

Ed Milliband seemed rather “put out” for some reason by my suggestion in the Q&A that there will be no consensus if the Government continues to privatise and there is a political risk to the Party since some of our core vote may think they might as well vote Tory? Can’t think why?
