LabourList provides the leading dedicated forum for authoritative news, insightful analysis and robust debate about the Labour Party across the UK, through our website, social media, daily newsletter and events.
More than 35,000 readers subscribe to our daily news and comment briefing on all things Labour.
Our readers, contributors and speakers alike come from across the party and beyond it, from cabinet ministers, backbenchers, councillors and members to experts, pollsters and campaigners.
Launched in 2009, we are supportive of the Labour Party, but independent of it and see ourselves as a “critical friend”.
Our purpose is to provide fair, fast, reliable and well-informed news coverage of all things Labour by our in-house journalists, from what the day’s big news story means for Labour to the internal or local party news story other media have missed.
Our purpose is also to provide a non-factional platform on our site and through events for rigorous debate and reflective analysis on Labour’s direction, facilitating a wide range of views from within the party and outside it– together informing and shaping the party’s future.
We are funded by donations from many of our readers, advertising, event and project sponsorship, trade unions Unite the Union and the Fire Brigades Union, and other donors.
The LabourList team can be contacted by email at [email protected] or on Twitter about stories, ideas, tips, pitches, feedback or commercial enquiries. If you have a question about any of our adverts or sponsored content, you can find more information here.
