Harold Wilson would have been 110 today. He is my favourite Labour PM and my illustrious predecessor, having been the MP for Huyton from 1950 to 1983. This is a pic of me, Lord Hanson and Alan Johnson at a Harold-themed fundraiser I did last year in Huyton; a great night.

Harold Wilson would have been 110 today… Here he is taking on a protestor during the 1966 election campaign “I’m afraid your aim is no better than your material my friend” 🎯

At LHG panel "Lessons for Labour from coalition & austerity: 1929-35", Phil & @greggmcclymont . Phil's essay on Lab leader Clynes just part of his legacy. With @LordJohnMann Phil played key role saving @LabourStudents from Militant, as @MichaelDugher chronicled. We'll miss him.

"We come into Parliament not to fight the class war, but to end it" - Clynes quoted by Phil Woolas at fascinating meeting on Labour history

🚨 Don't miss your chance to reserve a spot for what's clearly going to be a brilliant event on The Great Man, Jim Callaghan. 🏅 A titan of @LabourHistory, he is also a titan of the Office of Former Prime Minister, not least by being the most parliamentary active ex-PM to date.

#OTD 1963. Death of Hugh Gaitskell aged 56 PM Harold Macmillan sent a telegram: “He had achieved great political stature and his premature death is a grievous loss to the whole nation” Roy Jenkins says “it’s by far the biggest unexpected loss to British politics this century”
