• NEXT week local Labour will be holding one of the most important meetings in years, to democratise our party.

At the moment over 95 per cent are not able fully to take part in meetings of the constituency party, as once a year branches choose only a few members to send to these to vote on their behalf.

But these annual meetings of branches end up denying our diverse membership of young, BAME, and newer members from getting involved. The system is broken and it’s high time that we changed it to reflect the diversity of our members and their political positions.

So we urge members of the party to come along to this special meeting to change this. It is vital that our members are able to contribute properly to the incoming democratic socialist government that will transform this country for the better with Jeremy Corbyn as prime minister.

The meeting is on November 27 at St Pancras Church, Euston Road, NW1. Doors open at 6.30pm and close at 7.30pm sharp. Bring your membership card or ID.
