- by a Bristol correspondent. The Bristol Borough Labour Party Annual Policy Conference meeting on 24th. November passed by a large majority, with only five against, a resolution reaffirming support for full nationalisation of the port industry and called for a statement to the effect to be included in the 1968 Municipal Election manifesto.

Leading spokesman of the Labour Group were strongly opposed to Bristol being included in the nationalisation plans arguing instead for continuation of the existing municipal ownership. It was obvious from the voting figures that they received practically no support from delegates. It will be interesting in the light of this whether leading Aldermen in the group will persist in their businessmen's approach to docks nationalisation.
