Jon of the Rogers on the left and Ken Livingsone on the right at the London regions AGM Ken thinks he might be ok with the election on the 3rd May as a Greek worker in a hospital he recently attended declared that he would be voting for him! Ken should have perhaps taken my advice last time and turned up at London Greek Radio when I set up an interview for him?? Boris bloody did!!! Sort out your PR our Ken!
As expected the AGM of the London Unison region took place yesterday with the usual results in the election of officers.
The United Left candidates did not win as some people thought they could and the reasons for that are many. One is to do with very little effort being put in to ensure victory and leaving things the last minute. The other appears to have more to do with some delegates who only attend regional Council once a year voting against what they perceive as being a very left wing slate, in other words they are not voting in favor of the other team they just prefer not to elect those they perceive to be on the far left. More needs to be done to make sure that those delegated to attend the Regional AGM know more about who does and says what. Otherwise I couldn't explain why Jon of the Rogers keeps getting a big majority at NEC elections but the UL candidtaes at regional Council never win? Something wrong there, the maths don't add up!
