All out for Corbyn! – Oppose the threat to split Labour

Labour’s leadership election is the central fight in British politics this summer. Capitalism is determined to block the possibility of a Jeremy Corbyn-led Labour government. It recognises that in Corbyn it faces a determined opponent, who is resolute in his defence of the welfare state, opposition to US military adventures and the promotion of racism.

Mobilise support for Corbyn – he must be on Labour’s ballot paper

Tomorrow (Tuesday 26 July) the Labour right is challenging in the High Court the decision of Labour’s National Executive Committee (NEC) to put Jeremy Corbyn on the ballot paper in the current leadership contest. Having lost the vote at the 12 July NEC the right now wants a High Court judge to block Labour’s membership from being allowed to express its democratic view on who should be leader.

Labour right aren’t defeated yet. All out for Corbyn!

The coup plotters in the Labour Party have suffered a significant set-back with the decision of Labour’s NEC not to prevent Jeremy Corbyn from being on a leadership ballot. Thwarting this blatant denial of democracy, by 18 to 14 votes, is an important victory for the leader, the entire Corbyn movement and Labour’s membership.

Stand firm with Jeremy – oppose an undemocratic coup

Labour’s right wing has announced this weekend that a Labour leadership challenge will be launched on Monday 11 July with Angela Eagle declaring her candidature. Owen Smith is considering announcing a leadership bid too. This is the next stage of the right’s attempted coup.

The right wing’s war on the Labour leadership

Following the victory of the Brexit side in its EU referendum Britain has entered its biggest political crisis since 1945. The Tories on both sides of the EU argument do not have a clear proposal on how to proceed. The leadership team of the official Brexit campaign, Michael Gove and Boris Johnson, has already imploded and internal fighting between pro- and anti-EU Tories can be expected to intensify.
