Labour must not accept the Coalition's cuts Print E-mail
By Socialist Appeal   
Wednesday, 25 January 2012
The following is a motion written and proposed by Adam Booth, Labour Party member and secretary of the Cambridge Marxist Discussion Group. The resolution was written in response to comments made recently by Ed Miliband and Ed Balls, the leader of the Labour Party and Shadow Chancellor respectively, who have outlined that the Labour Party cannot promise to reverse any of the Coalition's cuts if Labour is elected in the next election.

Where Now for Scottish Labour? Print E-mail
By Ewan and Michael   
Tuesday, 03 January 2012
The recent Scottish Labour Leadership contest saw the election of former deputy leader Johann Lamont to the role. With the endorsement of most MPs, MSPs and trade unions, she was the clear choice of the party leadership, and won with 51% of first preference votes.
 
Defend the union link Print E-mail
By Steve Jones   
Wednesday, 03 August 2011
If the report in Today's edition of the Guardian (click here to read it) is to be believed it seems that the Labour leadership has decided to ignore any of the good stuff which may have come out of the Refounding Labour consultation exercise and instead dig up some old Blairite/New Labour garbage. Yet again, they want to dilute the union presence in the party decision making process. Given that the mood in the movement is for a more powerful annual conference rather than the jamboree it became under Blair, Ed Miliband has offered up some 'reforms' of his own.
 
Where is Labour going? Refounding Labour – A Party for the New Generation. Print E-mail

Wednesday, 18 May 2011
labour80slogo.gifThe Labour Party have launched a "consultation" exercise around a document called 'Refounding Labour. ' What issues are involved and what response will best serve the movement now as the Tory led coalition government attacks our public services?

Labour and the cuts Print E-mail
By Adam Booth (Cambridge CLP)   
Tuesday, 26 April 2011
Saturday 26th March 2011 marked a watershed point for the modern Labour Party. The Trade Union Congress had called for workers, students, pensioners and all those affected by the coalition cuts to converge on the capital. The question was: would Labour show up to the party too?
 
LRC Conference 2011: Fight The Cuts! Print E-mail
By Terry McPartlan   
Monday, 17 January 2011
lrc.jpgAround 350 Labour Party members, trade unionists and socialists attended the 2011 LRC (Labour Representation Committee) “Resist the Cuts, Rebuild the Party” conference at Conway Hall in London on January 15th. LRC Conference tends to major on the big events of the day. Two years ago it was the economic crash and last year the general election. This year the conference was not surprisingly dominated by the threat of cuts and the need to defeat them.
 
Labour leadership election upset Print E-mail
By Rob Sewell   
Monday, 27 September 2010
Against all the odds and against the wishes of the whole establishment from The Economist to The Sunday Times, Ed Miliband has emerged as Labour Party leader, simply by standing a little to the left of his brother. This clinched the trade union members vote, which shows in which direction workers want the party to go, clearly to the left. But which way will Ed Miliband go?
 
Socialist Appeal Editorial: Labour Leadership Election Print E-mail

Tuesday, 31 August 2010
labour80slogo.jpgSocialist Appeal Editorial: The Labour leadership election contest will be ending in September as the ballot papers finally go out. It could have been an opportunity to discuss a balance-sheet of the right-wing control of the party under New Labour and an opportunity to discuss a socialist programme in face of the worst capitalist crisis since the 1930s. However, the contest has left most people cold.
