According to correspondents, John McDonnell won’t be the only MP in Durham tomorrow. Evidently, Hazel Blears will become the first Cabinet minister in many years - since the 70s? - to attend the Durham Miners’ Gala this Saturday.
Hazel last attended the Gala before her election to parliament and has marched in the procession. While, as Chair of the party, she is presumably attending in order to build bridges with the left, she is not expected to endorse McDonnell’s early bid for the leadership.

Hazel was there as was Mr. D Miliband.
