National conference starts today



The Lambeth troops in Brighton Sat 13 June 2009!
Back from national local government conference in Brighton where I attended with 4 other Lambeth (all female) delegates who did so well. I am very proud of them.


Claire spoke on the motion from the national Black Members committee and made a very good speech. She was nervous before but stood up and did us all proud. This is because she was talking from the heart! And Anne did well by attending all the sessions and supporting the others as did Rebeca. Jon of course spend most of his time showing off but he did make some good contributions to some hot debates and I have therefore decided to keep him on for another year on the understanding that he should get a new set of t shirts! No self professing socialist should be seen wearing the same shoes every day! Anyway only joking he was good!


I have reproduced the picture from John Gray (the new Lambeth Unison friend) as I didn't bother taking a camera myself. Myself and the Lambeth girlies (I know it sounds sexist but can't think of another word!) spend some time chatting to John Gray who is, to be honest, a nice guy and quite interesting. He is, after all, a fellow Labour party member! Also had a chat with Linda Perks on the beach who was in her jeans and thought she looked good in them (more sexist remarks I know..)


Well back to London now should be at conference on Thursday and Friday but someone has to mind the shop whilst Jon of the Rogers is showing off at conference!
