The Forum is the annual meeting of UNISON London Region Labour Link (APF) branch delegates.
To my right (speaking) is Joanne McCartney, GLA member for Enfield and Haringey and to my left is our keynote speaker Sadiq Khan, MP for Tooting, Shadow Lord Chancellor and Secretary State for Justice.
We also had as speakers Karen Buck MP, MP for Westminister North and Shadow Minister for Welfare Reform: Margret Hodge, MP for Barking and Chair of the Public Accounts Committee (picture right)
Jeremy Corbyn, MP for Islington North and our final speaker, Chuka Umunna, MP for Streatham, member of Treasury Select Committee and Parliamentary Private Secretary to Ed Miliband (picture below).
All the speakers were well received and there was a good Q&A debate afterwards.
The importance of the TUC March on the 26th was made clear by everyone who spoke.
We also got UNISON members from Ekaya Housing Association who are facing massive pay cuts to lobby the guest speakers.

What's your view on Tory Oliver Letwin who said he didn't want more poor people from Sheffield taking more cheap holidays?
He also said I believe he would rather beg in the street than send his children to a London Comp and claimed expenses to fix a leak in his tennis court.
He is of course a prat.
Hands up if you voted against all cuts!
Hands up if you hate all Tories and their fellow travellers!
