Sharon Hodgson MP


Shadow Education Minister Sharon Hodgson MP (left) was in Brighton last week, for a meeting regarding the Brightstart Nursery. She spoke to Labour members at a meeting at the Hanover pub, together with Labour Group leader Councillor Gill Mitchell. It was a great opportunity to hear about some of her values, and what she feels the challenges are for the Opposition over the next few years. Sharon was appointed by Shadow Secretary of State for Education Andy Burnham, whom we heard a lot about during the leadership election. I was impressed with Andy and felt he holds many traditional Labour values - and acted on them as Secretary of State for Health, including setting a tougher line against outsourcing.
