At last - people are voting for a person and not a party who would place anyone as assurance "You'll get in it is a safe seat"
Congratulations Peter for being the person for Blaenau Gwent and not just a party who relies on historical support.
Wishing you well for your future as MP.

- Re: Congratulations Mr. Peter Law. Peter was qouted in the press saying something along the lines of 'I just thought I'de dent the majority to make a point' , nah! Peter, you had them worried before the vote. I've voted Labour all my life, but I'm bu*ggered if I can remember a time when Labour sent their 'front row' down to canvass.

  - Re: Congratulations Mr. Peter Law.Well said Jamie! Wahat I cannot understand is why all canvassing literature in our household was addressed to myself and not my husband. or both. Was not my husbands vote worthy of canvassing for? He is the Labour supporter in my household. Sorry but by sendingi t to me it simply went in the bin and he never got the chance to see it anyway. They could have gained a vote (NT) -- Carolyn, 01:42:18 05/12/05 Thu
    - What do preople think abvout the possibility of Peter Law rejoining the Labour Party? My view is that it would be wrong simoply becasue he stood as an independent and so may have attracted votes from people who would NOT have supported Labour. I believe he has a moral obligation to stay independent. (NT) -- DC, 12:25:59 05/13/05 Fri

        Re:Sorry, deleted the previous line! I watched a tv program last week, during which they interviewed the local Labour rep, Peter Law and Peter Hain. There was some mention of Peter Law's reasons for standing as being more to do with his ego than his politics, I have no idea, I've never met the man. However, what did sadden me was the arrogance of Peter Hain ... what ever happened to 'a party of the people, for the people'? I'm completely disheartened by the bombastic, prefect-like, attitude of New Labour. For the first time since I've been able to vote, my apathy knows no bounds. Ok, whinge over.
