  • 1 the Name of the Society Shall Be the Fabian Society
    RULES OF THE FABIAN SOCIETY 1 The name of the Society shall be the Fabian Society. 2 The Fabian Society consists of socialists. It therefore aims for a classless society, where a just distribution of wealth and power assures true equality of opportunity. It holds that society, through its democratic institutions, should determine the overall direction and distribution of economic activity, and seeks to promote where appropriate the social and co-operative ownership of economic resources. It argues for strong and accountable public institutions reflecting the values of public service to meet need. It believes in an active democracy, characterised by liberty, tolerance and respect for diversity. It aims at the implementation of the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and seeks the creation of effective international institutions to uphold and promote world peace and sustainable development. It seeks to secure these ends by the methods of political democracy. The Society, believing in equal citizenship in the fullest sense, is open to persons, irrespective of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability or creed, who commit themselves to its aims and purposes and undertake to promote its work. Its activities shall be the furtherance of socialism and the education of the public on socialist lines by the holding of meetings, lectures, discussion groups and conferences, the promotion of research into political, economic and social problems, national and international, the publication of books, pamphlets and periodicals, and by any other appropriate methods. The Society shall be affiliated to the Labour Party. 3 The Society as a whole shall have no collective policy beyond what is implied in Rule 2; its research shall be free and objective in its methods.

  • PRESS RELEASE IMMEDIATE RELEASE Mayors Lead the Way On
    PRESS RELEASE IMMEDIATE RELEASE Mayors lead the way on fixing Northern transport Northern Metro Mayors Andy Burnham, Tracy Brabin, Steve Rotheram, Jamie Driscoll and Dan Jarvis have joined forces to stand up for passengers and set out their vision for transport in the North. The Northern Transport Summit brought together business and political leaders from across the region to shape future plans to build a safe, efficient, clean, sustainable and accessible transport system which will form the foundations to rebuild the North’s full economic potential. Experts rallied for investment in infrastructure and putting connectivity at the heart of the levelling up agenda. Including calls to build back better transport to reduce the inequalities between passengers in the North and South and improve access to job opportunities across the region. There was also a focus on accelerating a green recovery from the pandemic and investing in decarbonisation of road and air travel. From improving buses to getting more commuters on bikes, experts discussed how to rebuild confidence in public transport and make it the green, clean and affordable option for both work and leisure journeys. Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester, said: “We know that fully-integrated and accessible transport networks are the foundation for social and economic prosperity. That’s why I recently announced a transport revolution to deliver for the people of Greater Manchester. “Affordable and reliable journeys, including daily caps where a single bus journey from Harpurhey in Greater Manchester should cost the same as one in Haringey, London. People should be able to move seamlessly across the city-region on buses, trams and trains with bike hire schemes and walking and cycling corridors.
