Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs

Statement from the Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs:

In light of the recent revelations about senior officials undermining the 2017 general election campaign, we, as members of the Socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs, make the following demands:

  • * The report should be published in full officially by the Labour Party.
  • * An emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting should be convened to discuss its contents.
  • * That NEC meeting must establish a transparent process to investigate the conduct alleged in the leaked document, with the terms of reference set by the NEC officers.
  • * This process must produce a report, that is publicly available, which restores faith among Labour members in the practices of our party.

We understand the disappointment and frustration that many Labour members will feel with the details revealed in this report. It contains revelations of senior officials undermining the 2017 general election campaign and suggests there are cases to answer on bullying, harassment, sexism and racism.
We express our solidarity with Labour volunteers who give up their spare time to fight for a better society and to get a Labour government.
We believe people must stay and fight for a Labour Government, organise to defend our socialist manifesto and push for action.
