ED MILIBAND IN BRIGHOUSE

I believe Ed Miliband is going to be in Brighouse. Don't ask me where or when because, as the Branch Secretary of the largest Branch in the Calder Valley, clearly I'm not entitled to know, And neither are my pals on the left who have complained loudly and long about the debacle which has been the Calder Valley Parliamentary selection.
It heartens me to know that some of them are continuing to complain and making their views known to the powers-that-be in charge of doling out the tickets to the favoured few.
Mind you, here in Hebden Bridge we're no strangers to being the excluderati.
At the last election, there was a big shindig with Tony Blair in Huddersfield and those of us who, shall we say, had expressed our displeasure with the PM over Iraq were not told when or given tickets to attend. Hopefuly, I will bump into Ed and a few members of the NEC when I go to Brighton in a couple of weeks time........

I was asked to write to him by members of my CLP over the Vestas factory. I got a poor response from a lowly member of the correspondence unit. I should send you the disgraceful reply in response to my suggestion of nationalising the factory.

Please do. Perhaps can pass on to someone privileged enough to have a ticket
