One small step Frank

Labour MP Frank Field has made some comments that this Queen's speech must show direction and vision from our new Prime Minister. He says the Labour party is stuck in a rut.

I would think that the highly thought of Labour politician would look more at ease sitting with the ranks of HM's opposition. In many areas of policy, especially pensions and welfare, Mr Field has shown that he is closer to the Tories rather than Labour.

So I would urge Mr Field to make the few small steps crossing the floor of the House where your views will be listened to rather than ignored.

Squiffy.
