  • Interim Report
    Interim Report 14014_20 Reproduced from electronic media,a promoted by David Evans, General Secretary, the Labour Party, on behalf of the Labour Party, both at, Southside, 105 Victoria Street, London, SW1E 6QT. Foreword Thank you to all who took the time to respond to the 2020 National Policy Forum Consultation. Your insight has enabled the NPF to provide a set of grounding principles to shape our policy for the challenges and opportunities ahead. The principles outlined in the report are based on the values that bring us together as a Party and lay the foundations for the work we will do together over the next four years. Labour wins when we offer a vision of the future that is optimistic and gives people hope that things can and will change for the better, and these principles reflect this. From empowering citizens to fighting the climate emergency, rebalancing Britain to supporting the nation’s mental health, the principles demonstrate that our Party is rooted in the values that the public share, and outline the kind of change that we know is so needed in our country. This report could not have been developed without listening to views from across the Labour movement, from our members to affiliates, all of whom play a vital role in developing our policies. But this engagement doesn’t stop here – we now want to hear what all parts of our Party think about these principles. While the world around us is changing fast, the common bonds between us have been strengthened as a result of the challenges we have undergone.

  • Never Again Lessons from Labour's Key Seats
    Never Again Edited by Sally Keeble and Will Straw Again Edited by Sally Keeble and Will Never Fabian Special LESSONS FROM LABOUR’S KEY SEATS Edited by Sally Keeble and Will Straw Fabian Special The Fabian Society is Britain’s oldest political think tank. Since 1884 the Society has played a central role in developing political ideas and public policy on the left. Through a wide range of publications and events the Society influences political and public thinking, but also provides a space for broad and open-minded debate, drawing on an unrivalled external network and its own expert research and analysis. The Society is alone among think tanks in being a democratically-constituted membership organisation, with almost 7,000 members. During its history the membership has included many of the key thinkers on the British left and every Labour Prime Minister. Today it counts over 200 parliamentarians in its number. Member-led activity includes 70 local Fabian societies, the Scottish and Welsh Fabians, the Fabian Women’s Network and the Young Fabians, which is itself the leading organisation on the left for young people to debate and influence political ideas. The Society was one of the original founders of the Labour Party and is constitutionally affiliated to the party. It is however editorially, organisationally and financially independent and works with a wide range of partners of all political persuasions and none. Fabian Society 61 Petty France London SW1H 9EU www.fabians.org.uk Fabian Special First published 2015 ISBN 978-0-7163-4124-6 Editorial Director: Ed Wallis This pamphlet, like all publications of the Fabian Society, represents not the collective views of the Society but only the views of the author.
