Pete Lowe will be the Labour candidate for Stourbridge in 2015. One of Unite’s 41, Lowe makes no effort to hide who has got him there on his website:

This is a genuine quote from Lowe on the news that he had won union backing:

“GMB, UNISON, UNITE and the Co-op…..the three largest Trade Unions and the Co-operative Party….all supporting me!!! Can it get any better?? All I need now is the support of Labour Party members”

That just about sums it up…
