tag me next time

might have to start reading your pieces with takes this good

Good to hear. I haven't read many of your pieces recently.

that's true but, as New Labour understood, petty crime is really important

Essentially every core understanding a Labour leader needs to follow to succeed is contained within Tony Blair’s 2011 foreword to the Unfinished Revolution.
