Dennis Skinner, speaking to the Durham Miners Gala in brilliant sunshine last Saturday. After having been ejected from Labour’s national executive the previous week by Labour MPs, he was in fine form, speaking about Cameron, the public sector strikes and ballot rules, the miners’ strike, Thatcher’s “share-owning democracy,” the mantra of “balancing the books” and much else.

The last of the real old timers solid labour socialist a bloke w3ho speaks and you know he is talking socialism not Tory-ism or Progress-ism.
He is labour through and through.
Utterly inspiring. Labour had better vote him back on. He is one of the best.
