The biggest political society at @ImperialCollege. A social and organising space for democratic socialists at Imperial 🌹
Excited to announce that I’m standing for Chair of Labour Students 🌹 A system that puts metrics before mental health, money before learning and profit before livelihoods has pushed us to breaking point. Let’s build a socialist Labour Students which leads the fightback 💥
After years of campaigning and months of negotiation by me, @nabeelamowlana, Micaela, @gembolton & @lara_eleanor Labour’s NEC will propose a democratic student wing elected by student members to Labour conference. This is a historic victory for student members and democracy 🧵
This is not a joke, but deadly serious. The Labour Party have officially placed @YoungLabour chair @JessicaLBarnard under investigation - for opposing transphobia. Here is her letter sent to NEC members - passed to me - and here are the tweets she’s being investigated for.
We are proud to be bringing this motion to Labour Party conference committing the Party to stand in solidarity with Palestine and support the campaign for the boycott, divestment and sanctioning of Israel. The cause of Palestinian liberation is our cause as socialists 🇵🇸
If people want a space to express very silly far left views, play sectarian games, and w undermine Labour's leadership, it isn't Labour's job to fund that, provide it platforms at conference, and let it run round using Labour's brand and purporting to be our youth section
We need a Young Labour that is loyal to Labour, not Momentum.
Since our election as @YoungLabourUK committee @UKLabour leadership & HQ have worked to undermine us - cancelling our youth conference, blocking our conference events & suppressing our solidarity with Palestine. Sign our petition to defend Young Labour - forms.gle/nt21up3r36CFoQ…
