    LONDON CLPs: Division 6 – North-East (Hackney, Islington, Waltham Forest, Enfield and Haringey Claudia Webbe Labour Party Membership Number: A011847 Claudia Webbe -On Your Side Seeking your support as London Division 6 CLPs’ representative for Hackney North and Stoke Newington; Hackney South and Shoreditch; Islington South and Finsbury; Islington North; Chingford; Leyton and Wanstead; Walthamstow; Enfield North; Enfield Southgate; Hornsey and Wood Green; Tottenham I am seeking your support to ensure the voice of everyday party members is heard at the London level, thus enabling the necessary change to reflect the spirit of the party under Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership. I will continue to press the case for more accountability, transparency and democracy in our London Regional Labour Party – no member should ever feel ignored or powerless. I want to work hard to ensure this principle is fully realised for all. I believe the London Labour Party should continuously strive to ensure a rule book that is published, accessible and clear to all members. For families at the heart of our neighbourhoods and communities in London, it’s getting harder and harder to make ends meet with rents, energy, food, travel and childcare continuing to rise, resulting in unacceptable and cruel choices between heating and eating. At a time of extreme inequality, the Tories’ promise more tax cuts for the wealthy, and more spending cuts on our schools and on the vulnerable. They promised jobs but the jobs did not show up, the incomes did not rise and our schools and other vital public services got savaged. Since 2010, my council has lost over half its budget and with this Tory government it will continue to get worse, by 2020 we will have just a third of the funding we used to have.

    Sikh Federation (UK) Never flinch from performing righteous deeds ANNUAL REPORT 2020 WORKING FOR TRUTH, JUSTICE & FREEDOM OVERVIEW A message from the Chairman In the last 6 months major restric�ons have been imposed on our daily lives by the COVID-19 pandemic. The extraordinary response to the unprecedented public health crisis has changed the way we interact with each other whether that be in families, at work and as a community. For Sikhs the concept of Sangat, as opposed to isolated religious prac�ce, is essen�al for our spiritual and moral well-being. For many Sikhs it is only when we are part of the Sangat that we are able to carry out much of our seva. Global poli�cs are now dominated by the pandemic, which has resulted in unparalleled expansion of government power. Restric�ons and the public health crisis will remain un�l an effec�ve vaccine is available. Most commentators predict we are anything from 6-12 months away from a safe and effec�ve vaccine. The full economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are s�ll unfolding but all governments are expected to struggle for many years with some struggling more than others. The Brexit referendum in 2016 triggered a process of polarisa�on in society that cut across the tradi�onal Bri�sh poli�cal party landscape. Brexit for many years, dominated UK na�onal poli�cs and was the major issue during the December 2019 General Elec�on that returned a Conserva�ve government with a large majority. The Covid-19 pandemic and its a�ermath however has the poten�al to be a poli�cal game-changer in the UK that could completely reshape the Bri�sh poli�cal landscape.

  • Claudia Webbe Islington South and Finsbury CLP Membership No
    National Executive Committee (NEC) - Claudia Webbe Islington South and Finsbury CLP Membership No. A011847 Tel: 07973 816885 | Email: claudia.webbe @gmail.com | Twitter: @claudiawebbe th 29 March 2018 Claudia Webbe -On Your Side Dear colleague, I am writing to you and your CLP to be considered for nomination to Labour’s National Executive Committee. Over the past few months, Britain has changed. You can feel the change in the air as an outdated, unfair political model has been discredited. Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour Party is setting the agenda while the Tories flounder, holding office but no power. This version of Labour, with an honest and straightforward left-wing leadership, is now the biggest political party in Europe, with the general election proving beyond doubt that Britain is sick of business-as-usual, and the electorate want an alternative direction for our country. This extraordinary situation would have been impossible had it not been for our membership. The ordinary Labour Party member has been the hero of the past few years. By standing firm against disgraceful media attacks from the so-called Murdoch elite, rejecting the received wisdom of the pseudo-analysts who had considered our party dead in the water, and by consistently backing Jeremy Corbyn, we have changed the future of our country. Our members knew more than anyone that Jeremy’s politics resonated with the population, no matter what the chattering classes said. If we are to take back seats in heartlands that we lost, we need to give our members far more say over Labour’s direction.
