Luke Akehurst's Blog |  | Hug my tree and I can be anyone you want me to be |
 Fighting threats from Stalinists and Fascists to use court injunctions and physical violence to silence free speech |  The Luke Akehurst blog - The genuine Luke Akehurst weblog about politics, elections, the Labour Party and that ghastly Hackney place. Ignore counterfeit Luke Akehurst blogs - this is the genuine article from the chap who whips Hackney Labour councillors in his spare time. Now with extra added ingredient Linda K Smith. Helps wash your family whiter! "My favourite film is Dr. Strangelove, Or: How I Learnt To Stop Worrying And Love The Bomb" - Luke Akehurst "Funny and clever but not particularly nice" - Time Out "With added foie gras, steak, soft cheese, claret and port (hic!)" - Luke Akehurst "In gustatus perquam putidus est" - Vatican Bank "Not so much 'Who's Who?' as 'Who's Sleeping With Whom?'" - Peter Mandelson "You can judge a blogger's politics by the colour of their blog banner" - The spoof Luke Akehurst "By a coalition of Trots, tree huggers, anarchists, Tories and a nasty little clique over-excited about my hair colour" - Luke Akehurst | |
 | This was one that Andrew Neill took when he flew me and his team to Brussels for a special election campaign edition of 'This Week'. It's a bit embarrassing I suppose, but hell - all publicity is good publicity. |
I'm Luke Akehurst..... aka. "Luke The Nuke".

| 2. | They must have made an outstanding contribution to the Borough |
| 3. | Many current and former Hackney residents must have good cause to remember them |

Can we be sure this is not a fake?! "nudge-nudge wink-wink". I'm sure Diane would use a much more polite term for you when discussing your demise.
Apparently Abbott & Portillo are going to star in a reality TV version of "Room 101" in which, instead of pulling the handle in the studio, they drop unwanted items into the sea from helicopters.
No, no - you've got it confused. Diane is appearing in a TV reality show in which Hackney MPs and Councillors are taught to play a musical instrument.
Diane will, of course, be blowing her own trumpet. Luke Akehurst will pay the whip (apparently he's quite good at playing the piano, but struggles a bit when it comes to the black keys.)
Guy Nicholson will be playing the double-bass, Angus Mulready-Jones will play the serpent (a kind of cornet) and Katie Hanson will play the mouth-organ.
Patrick Vernon will be playing the fool and I understand that Jules Pipe has dropped out from early attempts to play the triangle and will be playing the field instead.
I can't remember the others. Perhaps someone can help me out here.
