A blog by Luke Akehurst about politics, elections, and the Labour Party - With subtitles for the Hard of Left. Just for the record: all the views expressed here are entirely personal and do not necessarily represent the positions of any organisations I am a member of.
Andy Charlwood and Ryan Norton are running the Great Yorkshire 10K run on Sunday 20th May to raise money for the Cystic Fibrosis Trust in memory of Dom McElroy - our friend, comrade and colleague who died tragically young from this dreadful condition.

Running it is definitely too energetic for me and it's in the midst of the DL campaign. I'll have to restrain myself to a donation and sinking a pint in Dom's memory.
