Stockport

One of the shorter trips for a GC meeting - just round the M60 to Stockport Labour Club. Stockport is a strong Labour constituency in a district split three ways with the Tories and Liberal Democrats.

The members clearly work hard to keep the party going in a difficult area and gained a seat from the Tories last May. Amongst a wide range of questions and points, perhaps the key one was never to underestimate the importance of a local activity and the crucial importance of ensuring we keep our presence on the ground.
