Well done Jon
Well, that was worth watching, wasn’t it? I will admit to being utterly flabbergasted that Harriet Harman has won - I just hope that she does stand up to Gordon on the things that matter on equalities and family policy, even if she hasn’t in the past.
Earlier I mentioned that my TV is on the blink, so I was heading to my gym to watch the result on Sky News. Well, I got there, but I think my fellow gym-goers, engrossed in the soft porn that passes for music videos these days, were rather bemused as I howled with delight when Cruddas won the first round, and went on to come a massively respectable third. (I was slightly worried that I might topple off the treadmill if he did really well - thankfully I managed to avoid that). I think Jon should be really proud of what he’s achieved - coming from nowhere in a few short months to beating three Cabinet ministers. I really hope that his ideas and enthusiasm are rewarded by our new leader.
So you didn’t fall off the treadmill when Harman won? Like you I am hoping that she has had a complete character change. I would never have supported her but will be giving her the chance to change my mind.
Well i hope Harriet is true to her work and supports women and family rights. Put the CSA at the top of her agenda. Lets see what she is made of.
Yes indeed, lets see her radically overhaul the CSA so that it is fair to fathers and children rather than just mothers, and open up the family courts so that the injustice and bias can be seen by all. Somehow, I don’t think she will see it that way though, do you?
