Labour anoint a new leader...
You'd think the Labour Party would have learnt their lesson with uncontested leadership elections. TB has eyes and ears at the Young Labour rally in Gillingham today, if the definition of eyes and ears is watching the
#YoungLabour Twitter feed
. Sam Tarry, a big union hack and upcoming apparatchik has been returned unopposed as the new Chairman of the organisation. It seems no one else wanted the job, much to the jubilation of his fellow New Labour hacks. Tarry has clearly learnt the art of forcing opponents not to stand against you from Gordon and it looks set to be a recurring theme for elections to the New Labour hierarchy at whatever level. There is much rejoicing and TB has acquired an image on the current Chairman of Labour Students Sarah Mulholland and the President of the NUS Wes Streeting saluting and pledging allegiances to their new leader*:

That's a very unfortunate picture.
It looks like they're actually dancing.
...didn't Tarry write something for Liberal Conspiracy not long ago?
Umm, I hope I'm not the only one failing to hold back laughter at the sheer hipocracy of you insulting Labour Students for electing a leader unopposed...when Conservative "Future" don't even have elections in the first place!
PLEASE tell me I'm wrong. I really hope I am. Because even I don't want you to look this stupid
How many times do we have to have this conversation Harrison?
CF exec have flexible terms that mean they are not bound to hold elections every year, the membership can therefore focus all their energies and efforts on getting their party back in power, something LY can only dream of, instead of having stupid squabbles and arguments that come with elections. As liberal youth proved...
And anyway Tory Bear doesn't speak for CF officially so he can take the piss out of whoever he likes.
If you care that much why don't you piss off and make a video blog about it?

Haha, I guess I wasn't wrong. You really are that stupid. Oh well!
Boy you really know how to wind up Labour!
Sam Tarry is the National Student Organiser for Hope not Hate. And you just used a picture from facebook of two labour activists in a pseudo nazi saltute (well not in the small print of course).
Also Sam was elected Chair of Young Labour not Labour Students.
Go check out the latest press release from Compass to see why much of what you said had me laughing!
