According to George Eaton over at the New Statesman, Miliband’s “organising guru” Arnie Graf is set to return to the UK for the General Election campaign – and there’s a “programme of work” ready for him when he returns:
“a party source told me today that there was a “programme of work” ready for Graf and that he would be back in the UK as soon as possible”.
That echoes what Douglas Alexander said on Marr last month, when he said “He’s going to be involved in the general election campaign, absolutely”. Organisers who have benefited from his mentoring will be keen to see him back as soon as possible.
