Harriet, It’s wonderful to see you back blogging again! I think that you need to have a quiet word with Jon Worth though and tell him to sort out the html on most of the posts. All those question marks! Tell him that someone’s told you he’d get on better if he ditched the old Mac (that’s probably the cause of the problem anyway). There’s a few other problems here too, but I won’t trouble you with them yet.
It would be nice if you could put up your coming engagements somewhere; then we can catch you when you go walkabout!

However impressive the new schools and childrens’ centres in the North West and Yorkshire are, it would be very nice to read a new post at some point.
Do you have any plans for the forthcoming leadership election?

Sunday 25th May 2008:
I wonder if you read the Sunday Telegraph today? Big picture of you in it.
I think I shall turn it into a picture called “A woman’s right to choose”. I wonder how real the “free vote” was for some of the MPs on the Labour benches?
Underneath might be a pregnant schoolgirl of 12, an absentee father, a doctor signing a document with his back to the piece of paper he is signing and a huge background showing some long forgotten 1970s pop idol.
What do you think?

Harriet my dear, I think those nasty hackers must be back at work inside your blog. Your post on ‘Campaigning in Crewe and Nantwich’ seems to have disappeared almost before it arrived.
I’m not quite sure what your own position on the 42 day detention proposals are, particularly given your previous work for the NCCL. Any chance you could share your views with us?
