For the Many Not the Few The Sedgefield C.L.P. Newsletter November 2017 VOLUME 1. ISSUE 3 From the Chair It is always very humbling to see the hard work and generosity of our constituents and our comrades in our sister constituencies. Earlier this month the Labour North Gala Dinner was held, and it was a privilege to share an excellent, if expensive, evening with so many people who give For so much back. Our constituency was well represented, and it was noted by many that we were able to fill two tables with our constituents. the The outstanding speakers included Laura Pidcock, Ian Lavery and our Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn. Jeremy asked that I give all members of the constituency a many personal message of thanks for your continued efforts and hard work as Labour activists. The party is strong because of its members. not I also had the pleasure of meeting Angela Rayner at the NASUWT Regional Conference. As a teacher, her insight into the problems facing children and education was the a breath of fresh air. She has really listened to teachers, Trade Unions and school leaders, as well as children and their families. The plans for a National Education service, where every child and every adult matters, are inspirational. She also wanted to pass on her best few wishes to the members of Sedgefield CLP and her thanks for the part you played in the campaign, and what you continue to do. Angela is convinced that, with your help, we are on the brink of power. Back to the real world of CLP business, there has been mixed news this month. Standing Orders were approved, and the branch boundaries are in the process of being finalised. I hope for good news for our new branches soon. On a less positive note, due to unforeseeable circumstances, we had to move the November CLP meeting away from the intended venue of Trimdon Station Community Centre. Having announced this venue at the last CLP meeting, we were given only seven days’ notice that there was a potential problem with accessibility for two members. It is our full intention to tour the constituency and we were excited to visit the Trimdon and Thornley Branch region this time. Luckily we were able to secure the Oakleaf Sports Complex in Newton Aycliffe again, which we are very grateful for, but this is a long journey for some members who may have been looking forward to attending a local venue. If you want the CLP meeting to be held at a venue close to you, as always, your suggestions are most welcome. We also encourage car sharing and our Facebook page is an excellent way to do this. https://www.facebook.com/pg/SedgefieldCLP/posts/?ref=page_internal Finally, I would like to say what an excellent atmosphere it was at the recent CLP Nomination Meeting where we nominated our very own Mike Dixon, in addition to Yasmine Dar and Rachel Garnham. It was touching to hear so many constituents pay tribute to Mike’s contributions and, although he did not make the national ballot, Mike has shown us that we should stay positive and stand to represent our grassroots members at a national level. There are so many talented people in this constituency and, as always, I am very proud to represent the CLP as Chair. All Labour Party Members and Supporters are Welcome to Attend our First Christmas Social Event! ** Tickets are selling fast - call Jacqueline on 0776 338 0393 today to reserve yours** Phil’s Blog Spot At the time of writing, the Chancellor has just delivered his Budget Statement. And one thing is certain, with predicted growth of less than 2% for the next few years and a further £3 billion to cope with Brexit, things are not looking too good. The total set aside for Brexit now totals £3.7 billion, with more to come. But the Chancellor has only committed an additional £2.8 billion of funding for the NHS between now and 2020. And nothing extra for social care, which is a crisis set to explode in the coming years. The top line from the Budget as far as the Government is concerned is the money set aside for housing, a total of £44 billion over the next 5 years, of which only £15 billion will be new money. The Government aspires to build an average of 300,000 homes per year by the mid-2020s. This is a modest target. The first time buyers’ Stamp Duty cut is small and is dwarfed by the £10 billion in the Help to Buy Scheme which has helped to pour money into big builders’ pockets. The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) has given the Stamp Duty cut a ‘high’ uncertainty rating. The OBR estimates the costings will only cover a small number of first-time buyer purchases. They provide a figure of only 3,500 first-time buyers and expect the scheme will only put up house prices. The Government has moved slightly on Universal Credit after coming under a great deal of pressure, but recipients will still lose 63p in every extra pound earned. It is time for the Government to reconsider the taper rate at which benefits are withdrawn as claimants make their first steps back into the workplace. Although the Chancellor announced that any pay rise for nurses will be covered by extra resources and not taken from existing NHS budgets, there was no news on a similar offer to other public sector workers including teachers, police officers and our armed forces. And look out for the small print on any pay rise deal for nurses. As usual, there is a lot of smoke and mirrors in the Budget. But the main take away for me is the growth figure. Without growth, we can’t fund our public services in the way we would like. We all want to see the end of austerity, but after Brexit, extracting our economy from the EU Single Market will have major consequences for our economy and will make an anti-austerity agenda more difficult to implement. The Tories said they would balance the books by 2015. They have now pushed that target back to 2025. It seems to me to be a target which gets pushed further and further back after every budget. The purpose of this Budget was to hide the Government’s weaknesses, but it has only revealed the long-term impact of the financial crisis we still face and the great uncertainty about the impact of Brexit.

  • The Role of the Trade Unions
    Recovering from December 2019 – the role of the trade unions Other parts of this report consider policy, media coverage and public opinion nationally and in specific locations where Labour lost seats. The purpose of this submission is not to analyse the cause(s) of the 2019 general election result, but to consider that result in a broader historical context and the role of the trade union movement in working with the Party to achieve a different result next time. The most eye-catching losses in 2019 were the so-called ‘Red Wall’ seats. There are 13 ‘Red Wall’ seats that were lost for the first time in recent history in 2019: • Ashfield (mining) • Bassetlaw (mining) • Bishop Auckland (mining nearby; + Manufacturing, including food processing and packaging, public sector employment, retail and agriculture ) • Blyth Valley (coastal, mining) • Don Valley (steel, mining) • Heywood and Middleton (offices and retail) • Leigh (high street decline, mining in Tyldesley) • North West Durham (steel and mining) • Redcar (steel, coastal town) • Sedgfield (mining) • Wakefield (mining) • West Bromwich East (industrial decline) • Workington (coastal town, mining, steel, vehicle manufacturing, significant nuclear work due to proximity to Sellafield). Of these Heywood & Middleton and Leigh are in the metropolitan area of Greater Manchester, but the rest are towns. Three of them are coastal, all of them have suffered as a result of deindustrialisation, and the majority of them were mostly profoundly affected by the decline of the coal and steel or manufacturing industries. Any analysis of Labour’s 2019 defeat that does not take into account the disastrous loss of support in Scotland after the 2014 Independence referendum would be incomplete.

    1 ANDREW MARR SHOW, REBECCA LONG-BAILEY, MP ANDREW MARR SHOW, 16TH FEBRUARY, 2020 REBECCA LONG-BAILEY, MP Shadow Business Secretary AM: Rebecca Long-Bailey is the Left’s chosen candidate to be Labour’s next Leader. Her campaign is confident she can overtake the current front runner, Sir Keir Starmer, and therefore one day become our Prime Minister. And she is my final guest this morning. Welcome Rebecca Long Bailey. RLB: Morning, Andrew AM: Now I know you don’t like being described as the continuity Corbyn candidate, but Jeremy Corbyn [indistinguishable] only last month at a meeting said this: “It’s an absolute pleasure to be here alongside Becky Long Bailey, our candidate for Leader.” Was that unhelpful? RLB: Not unhelpful. I mean Jeremy and myself are friends, but it’s quite disrespectful sometimes when I’m termed the ‘continuity’ candidate. I’ve always been strong to my principles; everybody knows what I believe in and I’ll never deviate from that, but I’m very much my own person and to suggest I’m a continuation of any individual is quite disrespectable- disrespectful, not least because I’m a woman, quite frankly. AM: It may not be about gender but about politics, because by ‘our candidate’ did he not mean that you were the candidate of the Socialist Campaign Group which includes - RLB: Well, I am AM: Jeremy Corbyn, John McDonnell, Diane Abbott and you and Richard Burgon. RLB: I am the candidate of the Socialist Campaign Group, but I’m also the candidate of various trade unions and indeed a number of constituency parties who’ve nominated me.

Spending was out of control. Public finances were a mess. And people were struggling to find jobs. In fact, Labour summed it all up in a note they left for us – ‘I’m afraid there is no money’. Since then we’ve had some tough times. But thanks to the hard work of the British people, we’ve cleaned up Labour’s mess – and together we’ve put the economy back on track. We brought our public finances under control. We helped 3.6 million more people into work. We cut taxes for hardworking people. And our economy has grown every year we’ve been in government. So we can afford to invest a little more in the country’s priorities.

  • Brexit Interview: James Schneider
    James Schneider Co-founder of Momentum Spokesperson & Head of Strategic Communications, Office of the Leader of the Opposition. October 2016 – January 2020 11 January 2021 The referendum UK in a Changing Europe (UKICE): How engaged was Momentum with the referendum campaign in 2016? James Schneider (JS): Initially, we didn’t have a position on the referendum and weren’t doing anything, but myself and some others thought that was a completely unsustainable position. We suspected that the overwhelming bulk of our members and supporters would want us to campaign for Remain. So, we conducted an internal poll and found that this was the case, with around 80% wanting us to campaign for Remain, and used that as our reasoning with the Steering Committee to shift into campaigning for Remain. Then, very quickly, we began working with Another Europe is Possible, who moved into Momentum’s offices. We worked together closely on canvassing, we did some stunts, and had some involvement with the disastrous ‘Battle of the Thames’. I wasn’t on a boat. I was on a bridge, but others were on boats. It was quite a bad moment. When there’s Bob Geldof giving two fingers to fishermen, it’’s like that Mitchell and Webb sketch where they ask: ‘Are we the baddies?’ Is Bob Geldof and a bunch of poshos on his big boat, telling fishermen to get fucked, really good? No, probably not. It was quite a bad day and felt like we were losing. Then the next day Jo Cox was killed. Page 1/33 UKICE: Did you have any other reservations about the way Labour approached the whole referendum campaign? JS: I thought the main Labour campaign – the Alan Johnson, Hilary Benn one – was very limp, and quite establishment, and, therefore not terribly effective.
