momentum renewal

Momentum is the largest organisation on the Labour left. The Momentum national leadership and office should champion this work and use their significant reach and influence to boost workers’ struggles. Councillors are vital in transforming local parties: as the representatives of local members, they can interact and communicate with the membership, lead on local campaigns and adopt natural leadership positions in their parties. From the top of the organisation, I would like to see regular engagement with our members on policy ideas – with key strategic policy goals drawn up on an annual basis and a concerted effort to push key policies through conference.
Lawrence’s article begs a number of questions. But sadly much of that has died out.

For us to continue to thrive, there can’t be a better place to start. Group claiming to 'renew' Momentum set up and run by 'fixers' heavily involved in swinging north-west selections and extremely close to founder Jon Lansman, according to Labour sources Many within Momentum's structures have been promoting 'Momentum Renewal' (MR), which claims that its aim is the 'fundamental reform' of the organisation in the wake of the… Initially it would be a cacophony but that would decrease to almost nothing as the party approached perfection.

Dan Parks, CLPD Youth, Dover and Deal CLP But this basic principle of socialist politics is not compatible with the Stalinist and nationalist political references of the left Momentum Renewal represents. And this means building local institutions, not just running national campaigns.

Will Sheret, London rep, Young Labour National Committee Bell Ribeiro-Addy, MP for Streatham During the Momentum National Coordinating Group elections, Lawrence Dunne, candidate for the Momentum Renewal faction, called on LabourList for the Labour left to “get serious about trade unions”.

That has been a time-consuming and resource-intensive exercise, and building our branches has taken second place. This in a dispute that ran for two years (2016-18). Nor did the leadership campaign in any real way for mass unionisation, despite repeated and undoubtedly sincere statements about the value of union membership.

Local party structures remain a bastion for the Labour right – a bottleneck preventing members engaging fully in the life of our party. Post was not sent - check your email addresses! Faiza Mahmood, London Young Labour BAME Officer

Lotte Boumelha, Chair of North West Young Labour, Manchester Momentum In 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2019, Labour conference voted for various formulations to commit the party to repealing all the anti-union laws – but Corbyn et al ignored this, sticking to “Repeal the Trade Union Act” (ie only the most recent anti-union laws, introduced in 2016).

A new campaign called ‘Momentum Renewal’ has launched today with the backing of several Labour MPs, members of Labour’s ruling body and high-profile activists, LabourList can reveal. Now, more than ever, we need left unity. Plus, if we want to have a chance of having a single unified slate for the NEC, is best for MR no to win.

As a wise person once said, things can, and they will, change. “We have strengthened picket lines and built links with local tenants associations that can’t be broken. Note that the problem was not limited to, for instance, groups of workers in conflict with Labour councils (like the Durham and Derby teaching assistants) – though there was certainly a problem there. It has certainly not been developing relationships with groups of rank-and-file activists or even local union officers.

The Clarion is a magazine produced by socialist activists in the Labour Party and Momentum. Trade unions were once bastions of the labour movement’s power, boasting 13 million members at the end of the ’70s. More generally, even when Corbyn made supportive comments about workers’ struggles, they were usually pitched in terms of the need for the bosses’ to negotiate, not full-throated support for the strikers.

To turn this around, unions need transforming.

Momentum needs to start seriously mapping our trade union members and providing them support in organising through their branches. Momentum Renewal has already committed to relocating our office to the North of England – an essential element in a strategy to break from the sociology and mindset of the London bubble. If Momentum successfully builds our party branches, they will be a solid foundation for the left to continue to grow in Labour – a foundation less vulnerable to the twists and turns of national politics and national elections. I believe that unions carry the moral and political weight to cohere the left now Corbyn is gone – and such a partnership is essential if the left is to continue to thrive. Richard fights hard for our socialist principles to be at the front of the Labour Party and like Richard, that’s what I’ll fight for too. Momentum should be the go-to gateway for dedicated community and Labour activists into the Labour Party – and into local government. To navigate Labour’s procedures, but also to learn transferable organisational skills, build confidence and take on local leadership roles in our movement.

And the list of those claimed by MR who have backed candidates from both slates is a long one, for example: Momentum Renewal has been described as a ‘front’ for Momentum founder Jon Lansman by insiders, who also say that it is run by a small clique of pro-Lansman ‘fixers‘ accused of stacking parliamentary selections in the north-west of England and will mean ‘business as usual’ for Momentum if successful. It requires admitting where we went wrong, as well as defending the positive changes we made. https://t.co/E9Us09qios.

We do not have the time to start all over again. The slate includes Labour MP Jon Trickett, former parliamentary candidates Sonya Ward and Laura McAlpine, and current member of Labour’s national executive committee Huda Elmi. Grace Blakeley, Economist, Writer, NPF rep

Without a base in branches and CLPs, it is impossible to get candidates selected for either the local council or constituency.

Some of those shown by MR as supporters have backed only a single candidate, such as Francesca Martinez and Alan Spencer. Kim Johnson, MP for Liverpool Riverside In the years since, we turned this around. They repeatedly asked Corbyn’s office if he would attend their picket lines – most of which were a short journey from Parliament – but it never happened.
