Liberator quizzes the leadership candidates

By Liberator Collective | Mon 20th July 2020 - 9:15 am

Liberator sends a questionnaire to each candidate during party leadership elections which seeks to move beyond questions like ‘is land value taxation a Good Thing’ to get them thinking about what the party is for, where it should be going and how to get it there.

Both say they agree with the Thornhill report’s main recommendations and both want a greener economy. Both also indicate they would never work with the Conservatives at least not while they are led by Boris Johnson.

There are though some notable differences between the contenders which may help members make up their minds, see their answers at: www.liberatormagazine.org.uk

Remember, the last print issue (Liberator 402) is about to go out and from September iLiberator will be available free as a PDF.

I hope they both see the essence of delivering electoral reform in the next parliament for our future successes. To do this we must work with all that can help. This country suffers from an antiquated democracy of which our FPTP voting and counting system is the most obvious example.
