I fell out with the Labour Party when Tony Blair took us into the Iraq war. I still haven't forgiven them, but I got in touch with Luke because I like what he is doing - even if I don't support the Labour Party. I hope Luke does well and progresses up the Labour Party ranks because I figure all political parties need more people like him to help make politics something that actually represents the people, rather than a bunch of people thinking they know what is best and taking decisions on their behalf without any real consultation. I personally prefer a non-partisan approach and I think we would be better without any political parties at all, with everyone working together rather than arguing just to win some power - but then I guess I am a dreamer too!

Or is he just some dejected labour party worker? Most likely. All I need to say is that change is a good thing. A breath of fresh air. I can't wait for the next election. It should be the hotest for the for many a year, and may well end up with a hung house of commons. Labour and Tory will then have to sit down and talk. Now that can not be a bad thing for this lands politiks! Silly question: should I know who Frankie Dolan is? Or is he just some dejected labour party worker? Most likely.
