THE Labour Party has moved its regional headquarters to Harlow to bolster MP Bill Rammell’s General Election campaign in what is widely regarded as a key marginal constituency.
Mr Rammell was joined by Aileen Davidson, chair of Labour’s Regional Board in the East of England, and Richard Howitt, Euro MP for the East of England and a former Harlow councillor, to perform a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new office in Flex Meadow. Also present were party activisits and supporters.
Mr Rammell said: “I’m glad that the regional party are basing themselves in Harlow . As well as the valuable resources they'll provide at this important time, it is a real vote of confidence in the Harlow campaign.
“This election is a straight choice between having a Labour government investing in the future or a Tory government that would put our fragile economic recovery at grave risk. It is in towns like Harlow where that choice will be made and it is up to voters here to help decide the future of our country.”
The offices include telephone banks, printing facilities and meeting rooms that will be used for campaigning during the General Election.
