labour party membership numbers 2015

Those joining Labour are being patronised and infantilised, the subjects of diagnoses from cod psychologists. The word Hope figures largely for me. To accept cookies, click continue. Three things for me initially, recognising:

I have voted Labour for nigh on 50 years. Members wait outside the Young Labour annual reception at the party conference. That’s surely the approach this changing Labour party must have: politics made fun, rather than stale and dreary. Thus, university graduates tend to derive their expectations from looking at other graduates and risk frustration if these expectations are not met. Political persuasion is defined by personality type (see Haidt). Why not set up schemes where young party activists spend a couple of hours a week with older people who lack company? The largest single group that voted ‘out’ were the poor in the regions and the main issue was on immigration which Labour sees as no problem but a plus.i.e..over 50% voted against immigration. They are more likely to be ‘educated left behinds’. The future of the party rests on their hope. further from Labour politics. For 120 years Labor has been the force of fairness, equality and reform in Australia.

That number had surged to 250. In the week following Corbyn’s victory, more than 50,000 people joined the Labour party; 150,000 had joined as members since Labour’s election defeat, and during the contest 100,000 signed up as supporters. This is not a personality cult in action: Labour has been inflated by people who genuinely want to change things. Corbyn, then, does not seem to have attracted a very different type of crowd in many socio-demographic respects, except insofar as it is slightly less well-off and more gender-balanced. Britain has up to 11 million private renters, often being charged rip-off rents and deprived of basic housing security.

When ordinary people vote Tory it is because they wrongly believe it is in their interest to do so.

Until Jeremy Corbyn started talking about things I recognised from 35 years ago. What is happening to Labour is the latest challenge to this assessment – a narrative already disrupted by what happened in Scotland, where the referendum on independence politicised a nation.

Some will have joined to vote in the leadership contest, whilst others may have joined because they backed the party in the election and want to fight on. Working Queenslanders know that they once again have a Government that places top priority in the dignity of work, job security and workplace health and safety. The most striking thing I have noticed though is that when you look for, when you realise it is there, it how clear the bias is in the main stream media. Labour membership rises by 20,000 since election day. As governments surrender their power to the markets, the realm of policy is shrinking anyway. More likely to restrict their activism to online clicktivism. If Labour has a chance of surviving the merciless attacks that are headed its way, it needs a sophisticated media strategy.

I am happy to fund and to do my bit 121 with friends but I haven’t yet truly done my bit canvassing. How long they keep the faith, and what that means for the Labour Party, remains to be seen. But I do know that what I currently do is not enough. A number of features stand out: gender; left-wing identity; social liberalism; campaign activism; feelings about the leadership; and the possibility that the ranks of the newer members, and those that support Jeremy Corbyn, may have been swollen by what we call ‘educated left-behinds’ – people who, given their qualifications, might have been expecting to earn more than they currently do. The BBC panders to the Conservatives and ukip and prefers to interview PLP MPs less tolerant of Corbyn. I think it is obvious that the membership rose to support the popular Leadership Candidate Jeremy Corbyn and that more joined to vote for him the second time around. That is his greatest strength, and what makes him eminently electable! Those who caught glimpses will have had it filtered through, shall we say, not very sympathetic media. More Unites. Youth services are often the first to be slashed by Britain’s hammered local authorities, and leisure activities with a political edge could prove attractive. Annastacia Palaszczuk and Labor have worked hard to restore confidence in the Queensland economy. Intimidated about the prospect? Not only did three quarters of them join the party because of belief in the party leadership (76.5%), as opposed to only 42.5% of old members – the difference between Corbyn and Miliband (and his predecessors). I haven’t joined the Labour Party for any selfish reason, I am more concerned with protecting the vulnerable and maintaining our Rights gained, which seem to be threatened at this time. Rampant individualism means we have become a society of consumers, not voters. The preference for clicktivism over other forms of activity, however, is much less pronounced for those who are Momentum members. The overwhelming majority of members are pretty left wing, whether they joined prior to the 2015 GE or after: they are pro-redistribution (91% vs 94%), believe that ordinary people do not get a fair share (94% vs. 96%), think that the management tries to get the better of employees (92% vs. 96%) and think that spending cuts have gone too far (92% vs. 99%).

People now have a choice – the old refrain ‘they are all the same’ has died away. Some of us lack conventional economic aspirations – to a degree- and/or are ambivalent about the degree of separation from original social groups that economic ‘success’ tends to imply.

In my area the majority of ‘new’ ‘members seemed to be people who had at some time been members who had resigned or defected over such as Iraq war etc & who had become members again. Why not, for example, start opening food banks – but with a difference? Whereas three quarters of them live in households in which the chief income earner (CIE) has a ‘middle class’ (ABC1) occupation (76% vs. 75%), a third (34%) of old members’ household gross income falls below the national average of around £35,000 –something that’s the case for 41% of new members. Nonetheless, speeches help to set narratives, and Labour’s narrative holds promise.

. We no longer believe in collective solutions to our problems. Not with top-down meetings but football matches. excellent piece of work – if only the mainstream media would use it to dispel the myths and, more important, the PLP read and digest its potential – Corbyn’s support is not the mythical bunch of infiltrators; it clearly has a demographic mix which a united party could develop into an election winning vote if the anti- Corbyn politicians actually bought into what this shows.

The party was becoming something else, organically, from the bottom up. Did a sense of relative deprivation trigger some graduates to join Labour in the hope that the Corbyn leadership would help render their actual economic conditions closer to their professional expectations?

Fairness, investment in people and infrastructure, public housing.
