Selection manifesto

Over the past couple of months I've been working my way around the constituency and have now managed to speak with over half of the membership: more than all the other candidates put together.

Selecting your parliamentary candidate is one of the biggest responsibilities local members have and it's important you have as much information about where your candidate - and eventually, hopefully, MP - stands, what he'll do and what his priorities will be.

That's why I today sent out to all members my selection manifesto. I hope it answers any outstanding questions members have and enables them to back me to make Putney Labour again.
