ONE OF the most positive news stories since my last column was that in its first 10 days since the general election was called, Labour’s campaign received small donations totalling more than £1 million. The average donation was £26.
And despite claims in much of the Tory-supporting media that Labour wouldn’t be able to get people active and supporting the campaign like in 2017, in fact in the first two days of the campaign, the party raised almost as much as it did in the first two weeks of the 2017 election campaign.
Like so many other developments in this general election campaign, this story illustrates a stark contrast between the Jeremy Corbyn-led Labour Party and Boris Johnson’s hard-right Tories.
