How nice

Just looking at Bloggers4Labour, I discover that one of my old history teachers not only blogs (occasionally) for Labour, but was a candidate in the May election in Southwark council.

Sadly, she and the other Labour candidates got beaten by a couple of hundred votes by the Tories (even in 2002 2 of the 3 councillors were Tories, so it was always likely to be difficult), but it's always nice to discover that people who I like are secretly also Labour activists.
