Blyth Valley annual dinner

We persuaded my mother to baby-sit on Saturday night, so managed to make it to the Blyth Valley CLP annual dinner at The Spartan Hotel, Blyth last night. It was a great night out - around 100 people in attendance, including local MP (and legend) Ronnie Campbell, government minister and Hartlepool MP Ian Wright (pictured above), who gave a very funny speech, and party members from all over the North East, including a good half dozen from the Hexham constituency. It feels like Xmas has arrived.

He's a legend in the Labour Party alright - in the same way as John Prescott is - tut tut !!!
