The BBC could not resist repeating the result of the Hartlepool election all morning. They also broadcast ad nauseum the statement of the candidate, Jill Mortimer, that this was "a vote for change."
It is a bit disingenuous to call this a vote for change. The Tories have been in Government for over a decade. It is a vote for more of the same - corruption and incompetence.
The Labour Right will use the result as a pretext to move the party closer to Tory policies.
Why should anyone vote for a Labour Party with Tory policies when they can have the resl Tories instead?
Nobody could confuse TUSC with the Tories ☺The long uphill battle for a working class party continues.
