The Jenkinsite Policy Network

On Friday, 30 January, my piece introducing the Jenkinsite Group was published.

At that time, we had been active for roughly a fortnight and boasted 94 members. Since then, some things have certainly changed.

For one, we now have 203 members, a welcome increase. We also have more regular discussions about our party’s history, book recommendations, and deep dives into what the party is doing well and what it could do better. But the biggest development is arguably the most exciting.

Following a membership consultation period, we have decided to add a new dimension to the group’s purpose: we will now develop and propose party policies to provide a consistent liberal-social-democratic perspective on the challenges our society faces, from democracy and the economy to policing and social justice, and beyond.

And, of course, with a change in direction, so too does the name change. We are officially no longer The Jenkinsite Group and are now The Jenkinsite Policy Network.
