Thereโs only one acceptable replacement for the outgoing Chancellor and thatโs Rachel Reeves.
It goes against the core tenets of democracy for this shambolic government to rely on the mandate of 2019. We need a General Election now.
Congratulations to all our brilliant candidates and thank you to all the mainstream members of the party who have strengthened their support for the leadership and for a party that is focused on getting Labour into government ๐น๐ณ

A common criticism of politicians is that โthey are all the sameโ. Keir Starmer has just evidenced that this perception couldnโt be further from the truth. He is every inch what a leader should be, and Boris Johnson couldnโt be further from it.
Red Wall voters who deserted Labour in 2019 are turning away from the Tories and getting behind Keir Starmer, a new poll of all 57 constituencies Boris Johnson gained in the North and Midlands suggests.
Great start to 2022. Letโs turn polls into votes ๐

When you vote in the upcoming NEC/NPF elections, make sure you vote for candidates that want to actively help get Labour into government.
We cannot have the internal structures of our party filled with people who want to undermine that aim going into the next GE๐

Rishi Sunak is telling hard hit families to 'buy now, pay later' with their energy bills instead of offering real solutions. It is no way to run the country.
They are out-of-touch and out-of-ideas. The Tories are the crisis, and should be out-of-office.

With the successful candidates safeguarding internal party structures going into the next General Election, it is crucial that we elect candidates that are focused on putting Labour into power.

3 years ago, Labour suffered its worst election defeat since 1935. It was obvious that the party needed root and branch reform if we were ever to be serious about becoming a party of government again. A ๐งต๐๐น

Itโs also tough on the businesses that have had to close yet again. Iโll be doing what I can to secure more support for Londonโs businesses and help them through this difficult time.
A new North West Regional Executive Committee has been elected unopposed. The region is now fully focused on supporting Keir & winning the next General Election, putting to bed the dogma of the hard left - and putting Labour firmly on the path to power ๐น
The British public deserve politicians who know the rules apply to them.
Who hold themselves to the highest standards.
Who put the country first.
Britain will always get that from me.
Important that Labour Party members have affirmed David Evansโ appointment as General Secretary after he called for a card vote.
Ensuring the smooth running of Conference, where we can look ahead at the future of our Party - not fringe arguments - is the will of Conference. ๐
Fantastic atmosphere at our first ever Labour to Win Dinner! A great speech by

It remains a disgrace that

It seems that they have gone so far down the rabbit hole of opposition that their moral compass is indefensibly skewed.
It is not acceptable.
We hope Momentum respond to these pertinent questions.๐
Weโve written to

โs co-chairs to ask why Momentum instructed delegates to vote against the EHRC Rule Changes.
We want to know why they wanted to put the Labour Party in a position where it would be breaking its legal and moral duties.
