CfS recommendations for NPF and CAC

As well as the UK leadership election (which is obviously dominating headlines across the UK) there is also a chance to vote for candidates to the National Policy Forum and Conference Arrangements Committee.

These internal Party institutions have a key role in shaping Party policy and structuring Conference.  How representative they are of grass-root activists and socialist opinions will depend greatly on who is elected to these potions.  

Campaign for Socialism is standing candidates who, as well as fully supporting Jeremy Corbyn for Labour Leader, will also acts s a strong voice for ordinary members within the Party.  Should Jeremy win the leadership election is will be more vital than ever that we have socialists within the positions of influence within the Party to support him in building a genuine anti-austerity movement. 

Members can vote for up to four candidates for the NPF section (with an extra position available for the youth section should the member be under 27) and for two positions for the CAC.

CFS recommends the following candidates:

National Policy Forum (Iona Baker, Mike Cowley, Martyn Cook, Suzi Cullinane & Lyndsay Clelland - youth)

National Policy Forum (Iona Baker, Mike Cowley, Martyn Cook, Suzi Cullinane & Lyndsay Clelland - youth)

Conference Arrangements Committee (Katy CLark and Jon Lansman)
