How you can vote in the upcoming leadership election
There has been some confusion since the National Executive Committee (NEC) met to pass the motion of holding a leadership election last week. Much of this confusion centers around the directive passed to exclude anyone who has joined Labour since January the 12th this year.
If you have been a Labour Party member for less than 6th months (joined after the 12th of January 2016), click here to learn more and to join as a registered supporter (£25 charge applies). This option is only available until 5pm on Wednesday the 20th of July.
