    Brilliant.
    Now try offering a credible economic alternative to the Tory economic scenario of exploit and abuse the weakest in society in order to enrich the already wealthy?

    We know that “endogenous growth theory” was “not Brown but Balls” …but now we’ve worked out that it’s “balls” can he spend a little more time offering a coherent plan based on a clear commitment to the idea that those who work should receive the rewards of their labours rather than handing it to their masters?
    It’s not about tweeking indicators Ed ….Its’ about fundamental principles.

    Or is it to be another Labour term of office handed to them by default ….in which case it will be a case of Carry on up New Labour with “balls balls banquets and Balls”?

    Talk of a breakaway “Workers’ Party” is dangerous and wrong

    By Luke Akehurst

    On Friday, for the second time in recent weeks, Unite General Secretary Len McCluskey said something really important and dangerous that ought to have caused a reaction across the entire labour movement and Labour Party. But virtually no one reacted. According to the Guardian Len “repeated his warning that his members may force a split from Labour and urge support for a new workers’ party if Miliband fails to set out a radical vision to inspire people before the next […]

    Jim Murphy has set out an ambitious (and Labour) vision for development

    By Claire Leigh

    Since its earliest days Labour has been an internationalist party and proud of it, too. From Keir Hardy and Harold Wilson to Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, those who shaped Labour’s vision in the 20th and early 21st Century regarded the fight against poverty overseas as a natural extension of the fight against poverty at home. If Labour wins in 2015, we look forward to our proud tradition continuing. But with the clear focus of the current leadership on the […]

    Party democracy is important, so let’s fight for it

    By Max Shanly

    Contrary to popular belief (and by popular belief, I mean the belief that prevails amongst the Shadow Cabinet and its apparatchiks) the Labour Party does not exist as a fan club for the Parliamentary faction. The Labour Party is an instrument through which ordinary people can shape their own lives and change the future of this country in a direction that is beneficial to our people. The recent decision by the Labour leadership to vote with the Coalition and implement […]

    What can Labour offer young people?

    By James Coe

    Tony Blair proclaimed in 1997 that his three main priorities in government were ‘education, education, education.’ This has not translated to an increase in votes from young people.  Voter turnout between 1997 and 2005 amongst those aged 18-24 fell from an estimated 54.1% of this age range in 1997, down to 38.2% in 2005.  By contrast, voter turnout amongst those who are aged over 65 has never fallen below 70% since 1964.  As voters aged over 65 are more likely […]

    Iraq Inquiry report now expected in 2015

    Sir John Chilcot’s report into the Iraq War is now not expected to be published until spring 2015, leaving worries for Labour as to how it will affect the election campaign. The Independent reports that “discussions between the inquiry and the Cabinet Office remain deadlocked, and a year-long stand-off is now unlikely to be resolved before the current parliamentary session ends. Even if a deal were reached over the summer recess, legal protocols and procedures would push the Iraq report’s […]
