Russethouse Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Has anyone got any thoughts about who will win the election for deputy leader of the Labour party ? I favour Harriet Harman or Hilary Benn but Alan Johnson is favorite.Will they also be deputy PM ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford Anglia Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 I just heard a snippet on the local radio that William Hill have closed the book on Alan Johnson.So.........yet ANOTHER highly placed politician with little, or no education then?"Two Jags" has been pretty good for East Hull, but the UK????????

Russethouse Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Harriet Harman has won. I think she has plenty of education FAhttp://www.harrietharman.org/about_harriet.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ford Anglia Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Yep, I guess I, and William Hills were wrong.As far as Harriet is concerned, well, she's female...........and we ALL remember the LAST female LEADER, don't we? (Shudders). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianf Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 I used to know Harriet and her husband a bit back in the 1970s. They even had dinner at our place. I shudder to think of her as Deputy Leader - every bit as dangerous as Gordon. These people really haven't got a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russethouse Posted June 24, 2007 Author Share Posted June 24, 2007 Crikey O' Reilly - having been already got at (elsewhere)for defending Mrs T I find it hard to believe that I am now defending Harriet Harman!She is an intelligent woman who has won this job fair and square. IMHO there is something to be said for her assertion that a woman from the South combined with GB would be good, but also appealing is her dislike of spin.Let's at least give her a chance.

Bugsy Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Well I will apologise to Ron first [:D] but I think she will make a better deputy than the last occupant.IMHO of course............................ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
