Bob Hawke to front recruitment drive for Labor party

FORMER PM Bob Hawke will spearhead a recruitment drive as the Labor party looks to add thousands of new members. 
 
Prime Minister Julia Gillard wants the ALP nationally to recruit 8000 extra members and the NSW branch - which holds its annual conference in Sydney this weekend - is aiming to contribute to that figure by recruiting 2700 new members.

Former prime minister Bob Hawke, who is leading the "Recruiting to Win - Bob Hawke Challenge" campaign for the NSW branch, has written to all members asking them to recruit two friends for a membership fee of $5 before August.

Five members will get a chance to have dinner with the Labor stalwart in late August.
Labor has also produced for sale vintage election posters and badges featuring the former leader.
