All motions in support of migrants were ruled out at #LabourConference24 Leaving only one that endorses more brutality. Trade unionists demand Labour-affiliated unions stand up for working-class solidarity + migrants' rights by opposing! Pls sign&share docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Labour ruled migrants' rights motions out and tomorrow conference will vote on a motion endorsing Labour making asylum system even more brutal! TFRC Black members group made this to demand unions vote against it. Open to all TUists to sign and share: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

You don't defeat hate by cowing to it. If we want Labour to build a new, positive vision - a realistic vision that is best for the country - that starts here.

Last main leafleting session against the 'Border Security Command' motion - 12.30 to 13.45 outside the conference centre, near pizza express. Final push, this vote is going to be close, anything you can do might make the difference! #LabourConference2024

Spent most of my Labour Conference Tuesday campaigning and leafleting against the border command motion. Happy to know the motion has been withdrawn. Join Labour for Free Movement for a fairer immigration policy!

Starmer, Cooper and their supporters running scared because they know they can't defend their anti-refugee policy - multiple major unions were set to vote against, so they withdrew! They are weak on this - step up pressure to win safe routes & asylum rights! #LabourConference24

🌹 VICTORY 🌹 ❌With a number of unions and CLP delegates preparing to oppose it, the appalling "Border Security Command" motion has been withdrawn. ✅This is a victory for everyone that campaigned against it. The leadership knew it would lose the vote. #LabourConference24

Brilliant to see this anti-migrant motion withdrawn from Labour conference, thanks to campaigners Labour for Free Movement The public & The Labour Party's own members, don't want to carry on with the last Gov's cruel politics - they want to welcome people seeking sanctuary! labourfreemovement.org/migrant-rights…

Update on this: The anti-migrant motion was pulled last minute. Unite declared they would oppose it & I assume, what with losing on the winter fuel allowance, it was a humiliation too far to risk losing this vote too. Impressive organising by Labour for Free Movement who deserve a follow💪

Some might view the mass graveyard of the Mediterranean and the detention camps of North Africa as a nightmare. Our government thinks they are a model. In the aftermath of Labour conference and Keir Starmer's visit to Rome, here's a blog for London Review of Books: lrb.co.uk/blog/2024/sept…
