Glorious weather in Wolverton today, where we joined Mainstream activists, trade unionists and the Milton Keynes Labour team 🌹🌞 5 days to go! #VoteLabour

We are appalled by yesterday's terrorist incident in Golders Green and thinking of all those affected. There is no place for antisemitism in our society. The rise of hatred and violence in all our communities must be rooted out by all of us.

🌹Our next members' event is coming up on 30th April at the later time of 8.00pm for those of you out canvassing. Ahead of 7th May, we'll hear from Cllr Matthew Brown of Preston City Council on the importance of Labour in local government, and share tips and insight from the campaign trail.

✍️NEW on the Mainstream blog: Labour's planned reform on leaseholds and ground rents doesn't go far enough, writes Tony Mayer. www.mainstreamlabour.org/blog/end-the...

This morning I spoke on the Today Programme, about the Government’s Earned Settlement proposals. We’ve got to remember that this debate is about who has the right to belong here and contribute, it’s not about cutting migration. It’s also about who we are as a country. youtu.be/U5WxQn56kyQ

Mainstream's candidates for the CLP section of the NEC are supporting a call to reset the Labour Party🌹 They do so out of a deep commitment to our party and its transformative potential. Labour is at its best when it is broad, open and democratic. resetlabour.co.uk 1/5

It was a real pleasure to hear Angela Rayner give a keynote speech at our Spring social yesterday. She’s delivered amazing things while in Government, and she’ll no doubt do more brilliant work in the future. 🌹

“We cannot have a system where the child of a banker gets in after 3 years, and the child of a care worker after 15.” Massive applause to these words from @tonyvaughanmp.bsky.social at our Spring Social on a better, fairer immigration policy 🌹

We were so pleased to welcome @tonyvaughanmp.bsky.social at our Spring social yesterday. One of Labour’s brightest new MPs who cares deeply about the intellectual and political renewal of the Left 🌹

“If we want to succeed, we need to rebuild trust with our members and start drawing on the strength of the whole movement.” Incredible opening speech from our Mainstream Interim chair Kerry Postlewhite 🌹 @kerrypo.bsky.social

Incredible to see so many people attending our Spring social in London yesterday - the venue was buzzing with people who want to unlock this country’s progressive future!

✍️NEW on the Mainstream blog: The NHS is a paragon of what Labour should be - and mental health should be given the same impetus that physical wellbeing was when the NHS was set up. This requires a National Mental Wellbeing Service, writes Rob Balfour. www.mainstreamlabour.org/blog/a-natio...

Labour must strengthen its living link with workers and organised labour so that we remain rooted in communities across the country. That's why we hosted Unite members in Parliament last month and it's why we must consolidate relationships with our trade union partners.

Labour cannot afford to keep ignoring its roots. A statement from Mainstream's Interim Council on Unite's decision to reduce its affiliation to the Labour Party 👇

"Insufficient serious work was done to prepare for government... Mainstream offers a space for the exploratory thinking that the party has squeezed out." Our National Coordinator Luke Hurst and Interim Council Member Sue Goss make the case for a new intellectual base for Labour.

✍️NEW on the Mainstream blog: 'Fixing party culture it won’t be easy, neither was the founding of the NHS; but if we managed that without quite so many WhatsApp groups', writes Maya Desai. www.mainstreamlabour.org/blog/our-fra...
