Respect supporters were out in force in Hall Green constituency yesterday. Despite intermittent showers our Springfield team kept their stall going all afternoon. I joined them for while as we petitioned the public and visited the shops calling on the council to re-open Sparkhill pool.

The Lib Dems have a lot to answer over Sparkhill pool. It is a disgrace it remains closed. People in Sparkhill are angry about it and we got a very warm and appreciative response.
