A quick round up

Last chance for Burnley . . . .
Accomodation has now been booked for Burnley this weekend; but get in touch if you still want to come. It promises to be a top weekend.

Social in Rusholme . . . .
This Sunday there is a fundraising curry in Rusholme with Gerald Kaufman MP and Shahid Malik MP. 7pm at the Sanam restaurant on Wilmslow road. Get in touch if you want to go.

Super Saturday
Next Saturday there will be key seat campaigning in Manchester, get in touch to find out more. As well as the Burnage social in the evening. Tho, I appreciate the NOLS lot from Manchester will be fighting the good fight at national council. As I am a delegate I will be tied up in London but get in touch if you are around that weekend.

Youth conference
Basically Youth conference encompassing Young Labour and Labour Students is to be held in the New Year in Glasgow. This is the sovereign body of Young Labour and will elect the NEC Youth rep. Standing so far is Stephanie Peacock, the Young Labour womens officer. Check out her manifesto at http://www.steph4nec.co.uk/ I'll hand over now to Neil Bibby the chair of Young Labour who can tell you more about Youth conference.

I have great pleasure in confirming that the National Youth Conference will be taking place in Glasgow between Friday 16th and Sunday 18th February.

The venue will be the Crowne Plaza Hotel next to the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre on the River Clyde. This area is at the heart of the Clyde regeneration project and is a symbol of the work that a Labour Government and Labour Council have done in the City.

For more information about Glasgow please visit www.seeglasgow.com At the conference there will be a chance for young members to hear from high profile politicians, take part in policy forums and debates, sign up for training sessions and go to the many social events which are planned across the City.

I hope you will be able to put this event in your diary as it is sure to be a fantastic weekend. Any young member can attend Youth Conference but there may also be the opportunity to attend as delegate. Each CLP can send a delegate. Young Labour Groups, Labour Student Clubs and Trade Unions can also send delegates and they will be notified as to how many by the Labour Party. If your group is not notified by 10th December please call the Labour Party. Registration for the event will be available online in the next couple of days. I hope to see you all in Glasgow.

Regards, Neil

Neil Bibby Chair, Young Labour National Committee
