Here is the news. On 1 May 1997, I voted Labour.
This seems a long, long time ago now. It would be the last time I would vote Labour for 20 years.
Tomorrow, I will vote Labour again, with my head and my heart. I hope you will vote with yours, too.*
*I cannot, nor would not, speak for my friend. But he has just re-traced the Jarrow March.
Keep on shining Andrew Collins. You’re a guiding light and I still miss you at the Guardian.
Thank you. (I miss me at the Guardian, too. It’s amazing how quickly you can go from contributor to not a contributor!)
The best part of reading your words on here rather than on the Guardian is that there isn’t a massive begging letter at the bottom of this page.
Yes. This.
Hope
