Sadly not the result we hoped for in Yorkshire, but well done to @james_fishwick on a strong campaign.
Many Left candidates elected to both Young Labour and Labour Students shows the desire for change - now we need to know the full election results! 🌹

Congratulations to all elected candidates to Young Labour and Labour Students, and commiserations to all who weren’t elected but ran strong campaigns. We’re looking forward to working with the respective committees to Renew Young Labour and Labour Students 🌹

Ballots for the Young Labour elections open today!
Young members should vote for James and the @Renew2026 candidates, for a progressive and democratic Young Labour - one which is more than just a career path for a small number of members 🌹

I’m backing this call to end the narrow, factional agenda coming from the top of the Labour Party.
Sidelining the views of Labour members and trade unions has left our Party far weaker.

Great to see that Leeds CND is relaunching, and for activists to hear from @RichardBurgon at their event yesterday evening ☮️

An extremely important issue during YL elections. I am saddened not to see more candidates speak about this right now.
As someone who has worked in education and healthcare I know the importance organisations rightly place on safeguarding young people. We must also.

Big chance for Yorkshire & Humber young members to get proper representation! ✊️

Young members in Yorkshire and Humber deserve better. For years now we have not been allowed our democratic structures. This is must change. I am standing for Yorkshire and Humber Rep on Young Labour to change this. Please nominate James Fishwick (L1934998) at your CLP

Young members worked hard for a Labour government.
But we’re losing young members, and young voters. Our Party can’t afford to go on like this.
That’s why we’re campaigning to Renew Young Labour and Labour Students. Read more 👇

I am putting myself forward to stand as Deputy Leader of the Labour Party. I look forward to explaining why, over the three short and undemocratic days we have to do so.

Polling for LabourList shows Labour members in Yorkshire are the most concerned about the government's direction.
Members in our region know an urgent change of course is needed 👇

At their meeting last night, Spen Valley Labour members passed this resolution calling on the government to urgently recognise the State of Palestine.
Britain must follow 147 other nations, and recognise Palestine as a contribution to peace 🇵🇸

Today, the Government suspended four Labour MPs for opposing its increasingly unpopular agenda.
We’ve launched a petition, alongside @CompassOffice & @OpenLabour, demanding the Government restores the whip immediately.

Solidarity with the MPs punished for taking a principled stand, including York's @RachaelMaskell.
Sadly, once again the government responds with confrontation rather than accepting valid and comradely criticism.

LATEST: Keir Starmer is to remove the whip from MPs for persistent rebellions, starting with at least four on Wednesday afternoon. The Guardian understands that four MPs set to lose the whip are Rachael Maskell, Neil Duncan-Jordan, Brian Leishman, and Chris Hinchliff.

I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has sent their solidarity in light of today’s news of having the Labour whip temporarily suspended. Your support is incredible and it is the honour of my life to serve as the MP for Alloa & Grangemouth ❤️✊

My full support to my Labour colleagues who have been suspended over opposition to disability cuts.
Alongside nearly 50 of us, they were simply standing up for their disabled constituents and following their consciences.
Challenging policies that harm our communities, that damage Labour's support and that make a Reform government much more likely is a key role of Labour backbenchers. The Prime Minister should be listening to these voices, not punishing them.
After the suspension of myself and others last year for opposing the two-child benefit cap, I had hoped the leadership would take a different approach to backbenchers. Sadly, it isn’t yet doing so. To help stop a Reform Government, it really must do so.

The UK is the only country in the world with a fully privatised water system - no new reservoirs have been constructed in England since privatisation.
The best way to fix creaking infrastructure is public ownership of water 🚰
