I’m very happy to be elected the secretary of Leeds Young Labour, and I’m looking forward to working with the committee and members to deliver Labour victories this year.
Thanks to all that came to our inaugural meeting! 🌹
Thank you to all those that came to our inaugural AGM last night. 🌹

Note also with this:
- Mandatory national service would cost £2.5 billion.
- Introducing universal free school meals would cost between £1.8 - £2.5 billion and tackle child poverty.
I know which I’d rather spend £2.5 billion on!
🚨 NEW: The Conservatives have unveiled plans to bring back mandatory national service if re-elected
Sunak says the plans, which would see 18-year-olds choose between service in the forces and community volunteering, will inspire “pride in our country”

I don’t really think it’s appropriate for a sitting member of NEC to accuse former YL and LS committee members of being “misguided young people” - it’s quite patronising!
Plus accusing them of criminal damage. As far as I’m aware no former committee member has done this?

It’s unfair to label the slates as simply “pro-leadership” and “left”. It encourages factionalism.
There’s people on both slates that have praised and criticised the leadership, and people on both slates that consider themselves left-wing.
Every candidate wants a Labour gov!

Shame. Anger. Disgust.
Even as Labour MPs line up to voice their opposition for this despicable and cruel attack on trans children the party endorses transphobic policy.

On the Corbyn point:
Do you agree with Keir when he said this while running for the leadership?:
“Corbyn was right to make us the party to fight austerity. We build on that, we don’t trash it going forward”.
Just for clarity, if you are an apologist for Putin or China or Hamas or antisemitism, or you think Corbyn was anything other than a disaster for Labour and a moral disgrace, I DO NOT WANT your vote in the NEC elections. Please go through all 19 candidates and put me 19th. Thanks

A great article by

. Socialists have a lot to give to the Labour Party, and we shouldn’t be discouraged from advocating for radical policies. Such policies could completely transform our country, and finally give power to the working class.

I disagree. His policies were often in line with mainstream social democracy in Europe (especially the 2017 manifesto). Although we lost elections, Labour still received more votes than we did in 2001, 2005, 2010 and 2015. I think one issue is that we didn’t have enough 1/2

It’s fine to disagree with Owen’s politics, but it’s wrong to celebrate a member of the party leaving.
It’s a shame that some don’t feel Labour is the party for them anymore.
We should be a broad church party. We should be listening to, not belittling, most ex-members.
I just quit Labour after 24 years.
We deserve better than the race to the bottom between Labour and the Tories.

1. The RMT, the union Mick is the general secretary of, is not on strike today.
2. Union members choose whether to strike, not the general secretary.
When you have to get up at 4:30 to get an overpriced flight to Manchester for a family party because Mick Lynch has called a strike for jobs which could just be replaced by computers & we’d never have to worry about this again.

As far as I’m aware, no student union has a position against the strikes. Rather, they support them (including my own university).
Most students are behind the strikes. We want a fair deal for staff.
No worker should be forced to cross picket lines.
University students are being let down by relentless strikes
We want to end this disruption and the resulting impact on their education
So today, I’m announcing that we will consult to introduce minimum service levels in universities so students get the teaching they deserve

I’m glad that Labour Students have deleted the post. A few points though:
1) It should never have been posted.
2) A second tweet justifying it should never have been posted.
3) When a majority of the democratically elected committee disapprove of a post, it should be deleted.
People are suffering in a devastating conflict.
It’s not appropriate to be making memes out of the recent ceasefire motions/debates in Parliament.
As a Labour Students member I’m embarrassed that the post hasn’t been removed yet.

Solidarity to

with their upcoming industrial action. Deciding to strike is never easy, but unions have been left with no choice. Student and staff solidarity is going to be essential.
The UCU results are in:
Votes in favour of strike action over pension cuts: 84.9% (60.2% turnout)
Votes in favour of strike action over a real-term pay cut: 81.1% (57.8% turnout).
This means the UCU *will* be on strike nationally, including at the University of Leeds.

If you’re a Uni of Leeds student, I would encourage you to vote for pro-strike candidates at the LeadLUU elections.
LUU policy supports the strike for the next three years, but it’s important that we retain an executive that supports the strikes and our unions.
*Vote for pro-strike candidates in the LeadLUU elections*
LSSS created a pledge which candidates could sign. The pledge is:
“If elected, I pledge to recognise and support university staff on strike (from the UCU, Unison, and Unite trade unions) and action short of a strike”.

I’ve had family members go through work capability assessments and quite simply they are dehumanising, degrading, and often reject medical evidence.
Making assessments stricter would make it even harder for so many to live dignified and healthy lives.

When blatant lies like that are being said by the PM, it should be called out. It’s not just Corbyn that should be calling it out, the Labour Party should too, as we shouldn’t be allowing our positions to be misrepresented. I’m glad Corbyn has raised this point. 2/2

Congratulations to all those elected to the YL and LS committees, and commiserations to everybody who also ran excellent campaigns.
Let’s hope that as young members we can continue to work cross-factionally to make sure that YL and LS represent the best interests of all. 🌹

Solidarity! As a student I completely stand by this industrial action and would encourage others not to allow staff and students to be divided against each other on this.
Good morning from day two of our strike at
@UniversityLeeds

The irony is that the Tories constantly moan that free speech is being attacked, and yet when a Tory mildly criticises the party in a polite way they’re forcibly removed from the room.
🚨 | NEW: A heckler calling Suella Braverman's speech a "homophobic rant" is kicked out of her speech

I’m proud that Leeds stands up to fascists.
The city has a long history of doing so.
In 1936 when Oswald Mosley and his fascist supporters attempted to march through Leeds, over 30,000 Leeds residents protested and prevented them doing so.
Big well done to all antiracists & antifascists in Leeds today - outnumbering the 50 to 60 fascists more than 5-1.
Great to have trade unions, students, campaigners from
@Dis_PPL_Protest
and
@RichardBurgon
MP join
@SUTRLeeds
and others on the streets to say

1) You’re creating divisions between the working class and immigrants, by assuming immigrants are separate to the working class and working class interests.
2) You can help immigrants, homeless people, and veterans all at the same time.
