Harriet Harman

Old news.

I have been making the running on this story for nearly a decade.

Harman and Hewitt were Cabinet Ministers when I first started setting out the facts of their past. No one cared tuppence then.

I have got it into print with commendations by Peers and Professors, including one of Ed Miliband's closest advisers.

Now, on to a Deputy Leadership Election that would have been long overdue even without this.

Jon Cruddas, Andy Burnham, Tom Watson, Chuka Umunna, and so on: there is no shortage of excellent candidates.
