@mpleay @Keir_Starmer It was postponed I’m afraid because of the current coronavirus crisis. It will happen at some point though!

[Labour Staff Network @LabourStaff]

Delighted that @Keir_Starmer has agreed to join us on the #LSNPod next week to talk about the leadership election. Have a question for Keir? Drop us a Tweet, DM or email [email protected] We’ll ask the best ones!

If true(!!!), at least IPSA have listened (sort of) but the choice is to employ one more person & no capacity to retain experienced staff with appropriate pay rises (you know in line with inflation) or to give staff a pay rise but continue with excessive workloads @LabourStaff

One hundred years. Wow! Congratulations from all your friends and colleagues at @LabourStaff. Thank you for everything that you do. Here’s to the next hundred years of our partnership 🌹

[Jewish Labour Movement @JewishLabour]

On this day in 1920: Poale Zion (the Jewish Labour Movement) affiliated to the Labour Party on 5 February 1920.

Today marks the first day of our centenary year of affiliation making us one of the longest affiliated socialist societies in the Labour Party.

The @LabourStaff hustings format gives you two minutes to answer a question! Hope you can join us @lisanandy! CC: @EmilyThornberry @RLong_Bailey @Keir_Starmer @jessphillips

[Kevin Schofield @KevinASchofield]

NEW: Lisa Nandy writes to Jennie Formby complaining about the format for the Labour leadership hustings.
She says: "I am firmly of the view that the scale of our defeat in December, the solutions that each of the candidates want to put forward, warrants more than 40 seconds."

If this is accurate, then it’s deeply concerning. It’s the type of behaviour that you would expect from a well-known sports retailer, not the Labour Party. First the issue of staff pay, and now this. DS

[Hannah Al-Othman @HannahAlOthman]

EXC: Labour staff who were told their contracts wouldn't be renewed during the election campaign were bringing a complaint to the party about their working conditions, via trade unions.

Labour said the decision was financial, but is now recruiting again.

[Kerry McCarthy @KerryMP]

Staff who have worked incredibly hard throughout the election campaign, in HQs and regions, deserve much better than this. It is not the time for a fundamental reorganisation, and this is certainly not the way to do it.

[Labour Staff Network @LabourStaff]

Well said @unitetheunion & @GMB_union. Solidarity with our friends and colleagues at Southside and in Labour regional offices. DS
