Derek Simpson's reaction to Labour leader's speech
28 September 2010
Unite joint general secretary, Derek Simpson said: "Labour's
centre forward just scored a hat- trick. Ed is the new signing to
relegate the Tories.
"This was a speech worthy of the next prime minister and it’s
why Unite backed him. Ed's humanity is the antidote to David
Cameron's callous attack on working families. As Ed grows in
stature the Con-Dems will look increasingly insincere and
disconnected.
"Ed demonstrated he can break free from the worst of Labour's
past and present a realistic alternative to the coalition's
cuts."
