Congress victory hopes
Pranab Mukherjee, the External Affairs minister announced on Sunday that the Congress would make an alliance with the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in West Bengal and would jointly fight against the Leftist parties in the upcoming Lok Sabha polls. Mukherjee met with the TMC supremo Mamata Banerjee at a guest house in Kolkata yesterday. While speaking to the media, Mukherjee said, “We (Congress and Trinamool Congress) will jointly fight the coming Lok Sabha elections in West Bengal against the ruling Left Front.”
IMO: Bravo ! Congress seems to have made the right move at last ! What UK politics needs is candidates more caring for voters like Mamata Banerjee. Whatever the views of people like "Sailor-boy", people like Mamata Banerjee are an asset to ANY party, unlike a certain Labor politician whose Chesterfield East constituency was scandalously heglected, whatever his other merits. Of the oldsters, Jack Straw is possibly best of the lot, not that that says enough, probably, and Milliband etc appear to be unfortunate disappointments.
