Fab 5: Monday 15 February 2010

February 15th, 2010 by Alex Baker

Here are your Fab 5 for today:

  • The Conservatives are, apparently, the party of co-operatives. Stella Creasey, PPC for Walthamstow, has blogged an article she wrote for the current edition of Fabian Review on why the Conservatives aren’t really Co-operative. James Kirkup at the Daily Telegraph thinks the plan could lead to the sale of state assets. And Robert Peston, BBC Business Editor, has a few questions on the detail of the plans.
  • Will Straw blogs at Left Foot Forward on a speech made tonight by James Purnell at LSE.
  • And Gaby Hinsliff, formerly of the Observer, writes for the Guardian’s Comment Is Free about the impact of motherhood on female MPs.
  • Post to Twitter Post to Plurk Post to Yahoo Buzz Post to Delicious Post to Digg Post to MySpace Post to Ping.fm Post to Reddit Post to StumbleUpon

      James Purnell – no new ideas for Labour BY PURNELL- AS ANOTHER PARADIGM-MANY OF THESE IDEAS WERE EXPLORED IN THE 70s BY THE LATE RALPH MILIBAND’S ANALYSIS OF THE LABOUR PARTY WITHOUT THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY MARKET AND MONETARISM STANCE AKIN TO MARGARET THATCHER PM AND KEITH JOSEPH MP WHICH PURNELL NOW EMBRACES AND JUSTIFIES AS EQUALITY.

      WILL MARKET EQUALITY BECOME THE NEW LABOUR AND SANITIZED WEALTH?
