Our Gary has joined the Labour Party in the last few days.

When asked if he would run for public office, the 46-year-old said: "I'm not saying never." "I'm able to communicate, I know what I want, I have got a business mind, I can manage people in respect of businesses," he added.
"I can only imagine what you have to do there [Westminster] to survive and I don't play the game, so how can I get in? "So, when I ask myself the question do you want to dip your toes in, I can't dip my toes in because I'm all or nothing. I go in and I'm going in."
Neville has been a frequent critic of the government, often voicing his frustration on Twitter. On Friday, amid the latest Downing Street party allegations, he said that No 10 should be renamed "Hacienda", in reference to the famous Manchester nightclub.
Well, he beat Rashford to it!

Neville's instincts are in the right place but, based on his Twitter account, he's quite rough around the edges in his actual knowledge and understanding. Until then the world hasn't gone mad. An ex-footballer has joined a political party. The party hasn't selected him as a candidate. Yet!

This. He lashes out, understandably, but misses the point sometimes, from what I’ve seen.

I cannot stand him as a pundit, but fair play to him for joining Labour. Unlike a lot of footballers, he knows where his roots are, and he has not forgotten them. Far to many working class Tories around these days.
