About us
Who we are
Through our website, social media and daily email, LabourList provides the leading dedicated forum for authoritative news, insightful analysis, robust debate and events about the Labour Party across the UK.
Our readers, contributors and event speakers alike come from across the party and beyond the party, from MPs, advisers, councillors and members to experts, pollsters, historians and campaigners.
Launched in 2009, we are supportive of the Labour Party, but independent of it and see ourselves as a “critical friend”.
Our purpose is to provide fair, fast, reliable and well-informed news coverage of all things Labour, from what the day’s big news story means for Labour to the internal or local party news story other media have missed.
Our purpose is also to provide a non-factional platform for rigorous debate and reflective analysis on Labour’s direction, facilitating a wide range of views from within the party and outside it– informing and shaping the party’s future.
