UK Parties: The Labour Party [View all]

Last edited Wed Apr 8, 2015, 02:13 AM - Edit history (1)

A thread about the Labour party. Currently the 2nd biggest political party in the UK and the main opposition party to the government.

I would post some bumph from the Labour party website, but it demands to know the answer to the below (ever so slightly loaded) question before it will let me in. Very annoying when all I want is some sort of statement of what the Labour party stands for

Are you with us?

YES, I'll be voting Labour

MAYBE, I'm still undecided
