The political party I am a member has today elected Ed Miliband as leader.
I had four votes, one Labour member, one trade union and two socialist societies.
I have always been a supporter of one member one vote, the electoral college a left off from the early 1980s.
I look forward to this leadership election being the last under the electoral college where MPs, members and affiliates vote.
I look forward to Ed Miliband leading the Labour Party, from the political centre, to build a consensus around a platform around a social democratic vision for this country.
Building a mass movement against the regressive coalition government, this conservative government.
So I wish Ed Miliband good luck and hope Labour has started it's route back to government.
