Left List in Rusholme and Levenshulme

Don’t forget to vote.

Here’s Sue, our candidate for Levenshulme and Gorton South:

In Gorton South as first timers I think we have run a fantastically energetic campaign including attending a very lively hustings meeting organised by the Friends of Levenshulme group on Saturday. The 3 minute introductory speeches by the candidates have been transcribed and MP3 versions are all available (or will be) on the Friends of Levy website www.levenshulme.wetpaint.com. We really have got the rest of the candidates worried because we are the only ones talking any politics and any sense in fact!

The response on the doorstep also reinforces the fact that we are opening up a gap in Gorton South politics. On Sunday our canvassers had a great time including coming across a street full of health workers who know about Karen Reissmanns dispute and were voting for us already on the basis of the first leaflet. Knocking on doors now is more about motivating people to actually get to the polling booths on Thursday. We have already convinced many people that they should vote for us but they are delighted that someone is actually making an effort to call on them.

And here’s Nahella, for Rusholme:
