THROUGH the pages of the Hounslow Chronicle I would like to thank the members of Feltham and Heston for nominating me as next leader of the Labour Party.
Winning back the voters Labour lost won't be easy. Labour has to change, to listen and to become the change that Britain needs. We start this process by electing someone who is ready to face David Cameron at Prime Minister's Questions and stand as a credible alternative prime minister at the next election. That is why I am standing - to win for Labour.
I am honoured to have the support of Feltham and Heston party members in my campaign. I promise I won't let you down and that together we will rebuild our party and win for our values.
Local party members have had their say; in a few days millions of party members and members of trade unions will be asked to decide on who should be Labour's leader. I would urge all Hounslow Chronicle readers to use their vote and to visit www.davidmiliband. net to join the debate on Britain's future.
Rt Hon David Miliband MP
