Open Labour operates as a forum for Labour Party members to discuss ideas, tactics and campaigning in the soft left political tradition, which the organisation hopes to recast as the "Open Left". Within the party, Open Labour is generally positioned to the right of internal left-wing groups like Momentum and to the left of New Labour groups such as Progress. The organisation has been described as an "umbrella group of the Left".[1] HistoryOpen Labour was founded in 2015 following the 2015 Labour Party leadership election with the aim of giving voice to the soft left tradition within the Labour Party, which many felt had been largely absent from the debate.[2][3][4] The soft left tradition within Labour goes back to the 1980s. While many Labour MPs, including the recent Labour leader Ed Miliband, had at times been characterised as coming from the soft left politically, there had not been an internal group advocating for this stand of politics since Compass opened up its membership to parties beyond Labour in 2011. Since its founding, Open Labour has produced and published a number of essays across a range of topics on its website, and has help several meetings and conferences to establish its strategy and political positions. It has also held a number of political fringe events at Labour Party conferences. While still a new organisation, Open Labour has offered its backing to candidates in internal party elections and candidate selections for local and general elections. Several Open Labour activists were elected to Parliament in the 2017 UK general election, including Open Labour Treasurer Alex Sobel, Rosie Duffield, Jo Platt, Emma Hardy, Anna McMorrin, and Lloyd Russell-Moyle. Founding committee member Ann Black was a longstanding member of Labour's National Executive Committee, with the group backing her in her failed re-election bid in 2018 [5]. Political positionsComing politically from the soft left tradition within Labour, Open Labour looks to recast this ideology as the "Open Left", defining it as "a practical, open-minded and tolerant type of democratic socialism." The group promotes a "democratic, participatory and pluralist culture".[6] Their beliefs include advocating an economic platform of transforming the UK economy to a higher-investment, more green and more democratic model. They are also generally pro-European, and call for Labour to maintain a close relationship with Europe and its sister parties' on the continent, and for solidarity with those campaigning for social justice here and internationally. Open Labour has roots in the history of organisations like the Tribune Group and the Labour Coordinating Committee, but also through local government and through Trade unions in the United Kingdom. In an article about the 2017 Labour Party Conference, Isabel Hardman described the group as "[carrying] the Corbynite flag", arguing that it and the wider soft left in Labour had shifted to the left after that year's general election.[7] References1. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/momentum-slate-for-labours-national-executive-committee-nec-axes-veteran-ann-black-christine-shawcroft-not-standing-jon-lansman_uk_5a7d8a2ae4b0c6726e123624|title=Momentum NEC 'Slate' Pushes 'New Generation'|date=2018-02-09|work=HuffPost UK|access-date=2018-02-22|language=en-GB}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2015/dec/09/labour-activists-launch-new-group-on-partys-left|title=Labour activists launch new group on party's left|last=Wintour|first=Patrick|author-link=Patrick Wintour|date=9 December 2015|website=The Guardian|accessdate=12 October 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://openlabour.org/comment/more-than-just-an-interim|title=More than just an interim|last=Azim|first=Jade|date=9 December 2015}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/jul/24/soft-left-labour-splinter-party|title=Without the soft left, Labour is doomed to splinter {{!}} Neal Lawson|last=Lawson|first=Neal|date=2015-07-24|website=the Guardian|language=en|access-date=2018-02-22}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=https://labourlist.org/2018/06/why-im-supporting-ann-black-for-the-nec/|title=Why non-factional members are supporting Ann Black for the NEC|last=Hurst|first=Luke|date=25 June 2018}}}} 6. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/politics/open-labour-a-return-to-the-old-new-politics|title=Open Labour: a return to the old new politics?|last=Dean|first=Alex|access-date=2018-02-22|language=en-US}} 7. ^{{Cite news|url=https://blogs.spectator.co.uk/2017/09/labours-soft-left-goes-on-the-offensive/|title=Labour’s Soft Left goes on the offensive {{!}} Coffee House|date=2017-09-24|work=Coffee House|access-date=2018-02-22|language=en-US}} Further reading 2 : Politics of the United Kingdom|Labour Party (UK) factions |
