This is my personal blog. I was Branch Secretary of Lambeth UNISON from 1992 to 2017 and a member of the National Executive Council (NEC) of UNISON, the public service union (www.unison.org.uk) from 2003 to 2017. I am now a retired member of UNISON. I am Chair of Brighton Pavilion Constituency Labour Party and a member of the Labour Representation Committee (LRC). Neither the Labour Party nor UNISON is responsible for the contents of this personal blog.

Where can I vote and make a difference?
No, this isn't a mass meeting welcoming this blog by popular acclaim. This is a vote at last year's annual meeting of the Labour Representation Committee, the rank and file organisation for ordinary Labour Party and trade union members.
There aren't many places in our labour movement today where you could cast a vote that would make a real difference. The Labour Representation Committee on 22 July will be one such place (www.l-r-c.org.uk) We will debate whether their should be a socialist challenge for the Labour Party leadership (and how hard is it to answer that question?)
