  Do as your told
I have just got this email from Labour HQ. The Whips office will be well annoyed. Look at the first line of it. Are they going to say anything other than Yes? I don't think so. The very idea of Labour MP's getting on with their own lives! There would be chaos I tell you. Anyway good stuff.


Do you think the government should tell you how to behave? Should they be giving you rules and guidance or let you get on with your own life?

We're inviting you to get involved with a debate about it in February 2007. We'd love for you and your friends to come and listen to two teams argue for and against the question, ask some questions of your own and tell us your thoughts in the subject.

We can now announce some of our panel for the discussion, which will be chaired by David Lammy MP, the Minister for Culture, and will include TV historian and Observer columnist Tristram Hunt, journalist and Muslim Womens' activist Farah Khan and Director of The Foreign Policy Centre and Chair of the Young People Now foundation Stephen Twigg. There will also be representatives from the Terrence Higgins Trust and the National Union of Students, but the most important opinions will come from you!

And that's just the start of it. From about 7pm we've lined up a few emerging bands for you, as well as a bit of food and drink to take us through the rest of the evening until the music stops.

The Deadline Fever, who are described as the most hyped, notorious, upcoming yet unsigned rock band in the North, are confirmed to appear. Brandon Steep, a band likened to Coldplay, Turin Breaks and Snow Patrol are also playing.

The Big Talk will be taking place at the Journal Tyne Theatre, Westgate Road, Newcastle (2 minutes from central station) on Saturday 3 February 2007 from 1:30pm until late. You can buy tickets for just £10 and invite your friends.

If there are a few of you from one area coming along let us know and we can arrange transport. Contact the Labour North West office on 01925 574913.

If you want to come along, you can sign up at www.mylifemysay.co.uk/big.event.

Would go but am going campaigning in a marginal seat for the Welsh assembly elections.
