Registered no. 30027R. About us As defined in our rules, the Co-operative Party seeks: ‘…to promote co-operative and mutual forms of economic and social organisation, which are based on the principles of mutual ownership and democratic control, and to support political action in pursuance of the Values and Principles of the Co-operative movement in the UK and internationally as defined from time to time by the International Co-operative Alliance.’ Making the co-operative difference Since it was founded in 1917, the Co-operative Party has strived to build a society where wealth and power are shared and where the co-operative movement is able to flourish. Throughout our history, the Party has worked with the co-operative movement to empower consumers, protect the environment, and to champion fair trade. We have supported credit unions, won new rights for football supporters and enabled the creation of 800 co-operative schools. We have fought to ensure that there is a legislative and regulatory environment in which co-operatives old and new are able to grow and thrive. What is a co-operative? Co-operatives are businesses and organisations owned and run by their members. Whether those members are customers, employees or residents, all have an equal say in what the business does and a receive a fair share in the profits. One billion people across the world are members of co-operatives.

May’s General Election result was a disappointing one. Although we were pleased that 24 Labour & Co-operative MPs were elected to Parliament, we were sorry to say goodbye to a number of our MPs, many of whom have championed the movement for many years. At the same time as campaigning in the run up to the General Election, the Party ran the ‘Keep It Co-op’ campaign. This asked members of the Co-operative Group to vote at their AGM to maintain its historic link with the Party. We took the opportunity to highlight the Party’s work and achievements, and to build a renewed consensus around the need for a co-operative voice in British politics. It was a testament to the hard work of our staff and members that Motion 10 was passed at the AGM of the Co-operative Group and we look forward to continuing our long and successful relationship. During ‘Keep It Co-op’, the Party expanded our support, with tens of thousands of members and non-members mobilising around the campaign. The Party’s campaigning energy continued into the autumn with a focus on defending the burgeoning community energy sector, which faced significant challenges as a result of changes in government policy; and our campaign for a People’s BBC. the co-operative party Annual Report 2015 | 7 In the latter part of the year, the Labour Party conducted its leadership and deputy leadership elections. The Co-operative Party engaged with all of the candidates and each provided a statement setting out their vision on the role of the co-operative sector in Britain. We hosted a hustings event, which generated a lively debate with over two hundred of our members and supporters attending. This was transmitted live by webcam to those unable to attend. The Party’s Annual Conference and AGM were held in London. Three hundred delegates and visitors came together with elected representatives, senior figures from the trade union movement and organisations from across the co-operative movement to discuss the ‘The Party, The Politics, The Movement.’ The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Party met on four occasions. The final meeting of the year was a strategy weekend that produced a refreshed set of objectives on which the Party’s draft strategic plan for the next three years will be based. Members and stakeholders of the Party will be consulted on this before a final strategy is agreed. December’s election of Jim McMahon as our newest Labour & Co-operative MP was a real success. He has played a leading role in the co-operative councils’ movement and shown that there are a great many opportunities to put co-operative values at the heart of local government for the good of communities. Labour & Co-operative candidates have been selected for the forthcoming elections to the Welsh Assembly, Scottish Parliament, London Assembly and across local government. We wish all our candidates every success in 2016. One of my predecessors as Chair, Alfred Barnes MP, said that ‘political parties of necessity spring from deep and abiding causes’. 8 | Annual Report 2015 the co-operative party As we edge closer to our centenary in 2017 we also know that the Co-operative Party’s ongoing success depends on the relentless hard work and dedication of our members, party officers, elected members and staff; and the continued faith and loyalty of our large subscribing Societies – the Co-operative Group, Midcounties, Scotmid, Central England, East of England and Chelmsford Star – and those who have joined us more recently such as Enabled Works. The NEC is truly grateful for everything you do. On a final note, Karin Christiansen stepped down as General Secretary in September. I would like to thank her for her tireless dedication over the past three years as an advocate of the Co-operative Party and its values. She leaves the Party equipped to face the challenges of the future. By appointing Claire McCarthy as new General Secretary, the Party will build on the successes of the past, not least in the lead-up to the Party’s centenary in 2017. Gareth Thomas MP Chair, the Co-operative Party National Executive Committee the co-operative party Annual Report 2015 | 9 Strategic Objectives 2013–15 In 2013, the Party undertook a major review to ensure that the Party was equipped to deliver on its organizational purpose. The resulting strategic objectives shaped the Party’s work throughout the year: The Party is working to ensure that: The Co-operative Party’s vision, narrative, identity and profile are clear to all our key stakeholders, and we are shaping the national political narrative into a fundamentally co-operative one. Co-operative policies and solutions are firmly embedded in the manifestos; shadow teams are laying the ground for our policy to be implemented in government. Our politicians at all levels are the best they can be, which includes nurturing and developing co-operators from across the movement to become the politicians of the future. Co-operative Party membership is growing, sustained by the best membership experience of a political party in Britain. Our members are innovating, supporting each other, and are rooted in the co-operative movement. Our operations and governance are the best of the political parties in Britain – ethical politics in deed and fully digitally enabled. All of this can only be done in partnership with our members and the co-operative movement. We will extend the range of people and organisations we work with closely to ensure we deliver this. As a result, we hope the co-operative movement will be proud of us, even those who are not voting for our candidates. Reporting on our objectives This report covers the Party’s work in 2015, based on the objectives agreed in 2013. 2016-19 In the period from June to November 2015, the NEC carried out a comprehensive review of the objectives of the Party.

  • City Hall Rich List 2020
    City Hall Rich List 2020 Darwin Friend June 2020 Introduction Scrutinising staffing costs at local and national level is a hallmark of our mission to make government more accountable to taxpayers. This principle underpins our annual Town Hall Rich List, which details remuneration of the highest paid people across local government.1 It should also apply to municipal government. The Greater London Authority (GLA) is one of the biggest local authorities in the UK; it includes a number of well-known bodies and a powerful mayor. Sadiq Khan, the current mayor of London, has complained about financial woes, while the staffing costs of City Hall employees have risen by 82 per cent, from £36 million in 2016-17 to £65.5 million in the 2020-21 proposed budget.2 Meanwhile, the mayor has increased the band D council tax precept by just under nine per cent in 2019-20, and London taxpayers have gone from paying £295 in 2015-16 to £332 in 2020-21 for the GLA.3,4 The City Hall Rich List details the employees working for the Greater London Authority, Transport for London, London Fire Brigade and Metropolitan Police whose total remuneration exceeds £100,000. Key findings ▪ There were at least 654 people employed by the GLA and its subsidiary bodies in 2018-19 who received more than £100,000. Of these, 154 received over £150,000 in total remuneration. In 2015-16, 653 received more than £100,000 and 147 employees collected over £150,000. ▪ In 2018-19 the body with the highest number of employees with remuneration in excess of £100,000 was Transport for London, with 518 employees.

  • 1 8 March 2017 Deputy Mayor for London, Joanne Mccartney, Joins
    8 March 2017 Deputy Mayor for London, Joanne McCartney, joins Lambeth primary school children for a mesmerizing performance of Romeo and Juliet Download images of the Deputy Mayor’s visit here Deputy Mayor for London, Joanne McCartney, today joined children from Archbishop Sumner Primary School in Lambeth to experience the National Theatre’s latest production for primary schools. This spring, more than 12,000 young people will see the NT’s tour for younger audiences of Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth, with these productions visiting 27 schools across the capital and playing on stage at the National Theatre and Stratford Circus. The NT is continuing its commitment to touring live theatre to schools across London with its latest production of Romeo and Juliet. The production is a modern twist on Shakespeare’s classic love story set against a vibrant urban backdrop with excitement, colour, dancing and live song. A company of eight present a contemporary celebration of Shakespeare's masterpiece suitable for children aged 8 – 12yrs. Lisa Burger, Executive Director at the National Theatre said: “We believe that it is important for children and young people of all ages to have access to high quality, engaging theatre and we are committed to giving young people access to inspirational theatre and embedding the arts as a vital part of the curriculum. In 2017, we are offering young people across London the opportunity to see Shakespeare productions in their primary and secondary schools as we realise that for many teachers, it is often the logistics of bringing a whole year group to the theatre which can be the barrier to young people accessing world-class theatre.

There is a danger that that pride can lead to complacency. The elections in May 2010 were a reminder that we should constantly review the mechanisms that are in place to enable the citizen's right to vote. The 2010 elections will be remembered for the crowds outside the polling stations. In Hackney and Islington, those crowds were waiting patiently to vote but hundreds were unable to exercise that fundamental right when the polls closed. In other parts of London, those crowds were last minute canvassers, trying to cajole voters into supporting, or not supporting, particular candidates .
