Progress / Manchester - 1 comment

Progress, the organisation for Labour Party members and trade unionists, have started a new blog for news and debate, and seem to have done a very good job of it so far. You can follow their posts on Bloggers4Labour.

It's a bit late to mention it, but Progress' Conference starts, well, later today (Saturday) - full details here, with your friend and mine, the Rt Hon Tony Blair MP, delivering the keynote address.

Progress are also rallying at the Labour Party Conference, something I'm very much aware of with regard to the timing of our Manchester get-together. Here's what they have arranged:

• Sunday 24th September: 18:00-19:30 Progress Rally.
• Monday 25th September: 12:45-14:30 Anti-Semitism and the left: What is to be done?; 18:00-19:30 On the right track? Labour’s response to David Cameron.
• Tuesday 26th September: 18:00-19:30 Progress Question Time.

I do need people to decide on a date for our do, and given the above, I'm recommending Tuesday as our day. Comment on the forum - or here - if you want to suggest something different.
