This morning on Rigde, Corbyn righly said that the Labour party is members-led and that his mandate "comes from the members"
We know that 86% of Labour members want a People's Vote and this year's conference saw a record-breaking number of motions submitted calling on Labour to resist Brexit.
The Brexit chaos is a huge distraction from the policies we desperately need to improve our country, and leaving the EU would endanger Labour's radical agenda. Now is the time for Labour to provide the leadership the country needs and offer a different course.

Important legal finding that should allow us to keep the 500m separation distance policy for fracking applications
He made the point that once Mineral Planning Authorities (MPAs) had noted the existence of that definition, they were perfectly entitled to apply the wider definition contained in paragraph 129 of Planning Practice Guidance - provided of course that they explain their reasons for so doing (as the Joint Authorities in North Yorks have done).
That being so, it seems that the North Yorkshire Minerals and Waste Joint Plan’s adoption of the PPG definition ought to be safe from challenge by UKOOG (though the industry might still try and mount such a challenge) and that the National Park/Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in North Yorkshire will be protected.
Hopefully, other MPAs will also take heart from the judgment and ‘recognise’, but not adopt, the statutory definition.

We’d like your help this Christmas. Please sign our petition and join us in calling on these agents to treat all renters fairly, by considering each individual on a case-by-case basis." england.shelter.org.uk/support_us/campaigns/dss-christmas?fbclid=IwAR33H6PZOMhAmdOpnwwsx6gmJQ47O_...

Would you like a warm home that doesn’t cost a fortune to run and shrinks your carbon footprint? Besides pushing politicians to get more ambitious and pass net zero emissions target into law, one of the most effective things we can do is to cut our carbon and energy bills by super-insulating homes.
Join our informal workshop run in conjunction with St Nicks: •Andy Walker of SURE Insulation – the Technical Editor of the best selling Haynes Manual on Home Insulation will present, in his usual enthusiastic and humorous style, a host of straightforward ways to significantly improve the warmth in your home – without it costing the earth. Andy also offers ‘Whole House Energy Audits’ and ‘House Warming Parties’. Central to his talk will be photos and descriptions of four projects undertaken this year in Leeds...and fried eggs. On the night you’ll get a chance to speak to local residents who have had an audit done.
•We at York Community Energy will be seeking your views on our proposal for a local carbon balancing scheme to help insulate York homes, especially those in fuel poverty.
Entrance to the event is by donation on a 'pay-as-you-feel' basis.

Today trans kids in the UK are going to school, & their families to work, after another all-out attack from multiple newspapers, perpetuated on breakfast TV this morning by Piers Morgan et al. We stand proud. Our child is loved. Trans kids exist, some are thriving. Let them soar.

4 percent of corporate media reports about the fires mention climate change or global warming. 4 PERCENT!
The corporate news hacks would rather destroy their children's futures than question big oil & big farming.
