"[I]n a year we have grown our membership from 124,000 in March 2018 to more than 160,000 today." Worth saying that unlikely to want to exaggerate unduly since CCHQ is going to have produce a figure in order to ballot members and publish turnout with the results.

Never again can Labour policy on the most crucial issue of our generation find itself on the wrong side of its members and our voters. Never again can we find ourselves hedging our bets when we needed to make an historic choice about which side we’re on.
