Come to the LRC Conference ‘Resist the Cuts, Rebuild the Party’ on Saturday 15 January. The conference will set LRC campaigning priorities for the year ahead, elect a new National Committee and officers and will hear from speakers including: Tony Benn, Christine Blower (NUT), Jeremy Corbyn MP, John McDonnell MP, Clare Solomon (ULU President), and Matt Wrack (FBU).
LRC Chair John McDonnell MP, writing in the Morning Star, said:
“A great responsibility rests on the shoulders of the delegates to the LRC conference to demonstrate that the Labour left is not only up for this fight but is also willing to throw itself enthusiastically into working with all those potential allies within our community that are willing to fight back.
“Simply waiting for the demise of the coalition government will neither inevitably secure Labour’s return to power nor ensure the return of the type of Labour government that we need.
“The message that the LRC’s national executive is putting to the conference is simple: we can fight back and there is an alternative.”
