WELL SAID, COLIN

In today's CiF, Leeds MP Colin Burgon articulates the thoughts of many Labour MPs and Party members who desperately want to see the Tories defeated - but rightly state this will only happen if there is a major shift away from the cuts agenda which all three parties are currently fighting over like ferrets in a sack. Can we snatch victory from the jaws of defeat? Yes, we can. But no by adhering to the orthodoxy still being spouted by Mandelson and James Purnell.
