LONDON - British author J. K. Rowling has become the new face of Labour’s “working class heroes”, in its bid to win back voters.

Rowling, 44, who is the creator of the Harry Potter series, was named in a new video released on November 18 designed to show true “Brit grit”, reports the Daily Star.

It described the writer as one who “opened rejection letters from her bedsit in Edinburgh with the dream of bringing the pleasure of reading to children”.

The broadcast also features famous figures like the early Scots socialist Keir Hardie. (ANI)

Hi,
I like this article but..
last night i went to the midnight premiere of harry potter and the half blood prince! I was honestly so disappointed! was it just me or did it seem very choppy and for some reason didn’t feel like it was a harry potter movie. Don’t get me wrong some of the parts in it were either really funny or somewhat scary but i really was not sastified. I dont know, what did you think?? Am i wrong? Give me your opinions
