On the morning that tens of thousands are marching through London to demonstrate their support of climate change action ahead of Copenhagen in the Wave, Ed Miliband has taken part in a first: a mass phone conversation.
The phone call was arranged by 38 Degrees, who say Miliband will be sitting at the negotiating table at Copenhagn next week “with our words ringing in his ears…it’s yet more proof that people power works.”
Alex is the founder and CEO of The Cares Family. He was editor and first director of LabourList in 2009-2010, during which time he established the site as the number one Labour blog, and later an aide to Ed Miliband.
