After the events of the past week, I wanted to talk directly to Labour Party members.
In the nine months I have been leader, the Labour Party membership has doubled and is now at its largest in our history. We have won every Parliamentary by-election, every mayoral contest, we overtook the Tories in the local elections and two-thirds of our supporters voted to remain in the European referendum.
In parliament, the Labour Party has forced the government back on tax credits cuts, PIP disability cuts, police cuts and forced academisation.
We have achieved all this by working together. So I’m asking the whole Labour movement — party members, trade unionists and MPs — to come together to oppose and defeat this Tory government.
Yours sincerely,
Jeremy Corbyn MP
Leader of the Labour Party
