The Labour Party in West Leeds kicked off the approach to the General Election with a bang on Friday. Rachel joined forces with Jamie Hanley, Labour's candidate in Pudsey, in hosting an event featuring the Home Secretary, Alan Johnson MP.
MPs and Councillors from across Leeds joined friends, members and supporters at 'The Loft', and heard a rousing speech from the Home Secretary, who talked of his days as a postman and about the importance of keeping these two seats Labour - especially because of the lack of any coherent Tory policies.
John Battle MP and Fabian Hamilton MP hosted an auction, and 'Brothers on the Slide' played a fantastic set. It was a fitting start to what will be a hectic few weeks!
After his speech, Alan Johnson MP got his hands on a copy of Rachel's book, 'Why Vote Labour' - which you can still order from whyvotelabour@googlemail.com for £6.99.
