These internal elections really matter to consolidate what happened on July 4th - and to deliver on the change that the country so desperately needs. Make sure you vote Abdi Duale Mary Wimbury Anu Peter Mason Angie Davies in the NEC elections
Amongst all the fun, flair and fame of the #DNC2024 this week, there's a question: who is this party for? PB's Tom Collinge gives his impressions of this latest part of one of the most extraordinary months in modern political history⬇️🇺🇸 progressivebritain.org/the-party-is-f…
"The party is for everyone. That's the best way to unlock what the DNC meant, or at least what Democrats wanted it to mean." Tom Collinge of Progressive Britain shares some impressions and key takeaways after attending the DNC with us last week: labourlist.org/2024/08/kamala…
"This is our country, lets fix it together". Powerful speech by Keir Starmer Turning things around won't be easy, and we can expect a tough budget in October, but the politics of papering over problems is dead.
Elections don’t win themselves. Our changed party still needs our help. Our support for the government now will determine whether this is a one-term Labour govt or a transformative multi-term govt. Check out our pitch to LabourList, down below! 👇 labourlist.org/2024/08/nec-el…

With the return of war in Europe, a cautious and pragmatic reset of UK-EU relations is essential, write Michele Auga and Florian Ranft. What can Starmer and Scholz's Joint Declaration made last week tell us about Labour’s strategy for a more global Britain? progressivebritain.org/rebuilding-bri…
A single point of access, empowering people to choose the services they use, from a more personalised and efficient state. Labour has promised a decade of national renewal. Jake Richards MP writes that to be successful, it must embrace Digital ID. ⬇️ progressivebritain.org/digital-id-emp…
Digital ID must be wholly embraced by the government. It is central to our mission to transform the state – empowering the citizen, offering greater accessibility, and ensuring services are more strategic and efficient. My piece for Progressive Britain: progressivebritain.org/digital-id-emp…
Devolution could be the answer to three of the UK's biggest problems- stagnant growth, health inequalities and economic inactivity. So, asks Nathan Boroda, could Tory-leadership hopeful Kemi Badenoch’s views on devolution give Labour an open goal? progressivebritain.org/badenoch-vs-de…
‘we are reviewing medical criteria as part of our work to look at recruitment’ Good to see, I argued in an article in July for Progressive Britain (below) that this was one of the things needed to tackle armed forces recruitment & retention issues. progressivebritain.org/the-challenge-…
