Red Ralli in action earlier todayCometh the hour, cometh the Comrade. Leaving not a dry eye in the house, Comrade Ralli produced a speech at the TUC (yes, the TUC) this morning live on BBC Parliament which resulted in a sea of red hankies as she identified the plight of district nurses flying round the country in their Morris Minors for a nugatory mileage allowance when it costs a packet to not only fill the car but to keep the old retainer on the road. And did you know that they even have to provide their own cars? Well, our Herald of the Red Dawn is fighting their corner, as is now so eminent within the trade union movement that she was the official seconder for what was the first motion of the day identifying the plight of such workers. Suffice as to say that she did herself and her union proud, and looked not only splendid but also very professional. Well done Comrade – the red flag files over sunny Brentford and for this week only, over Brighton as well.
