Tribune Group: Labour’s British Promise
Continue reading → Add your reaction ShareThe Tribune group of MPs want to focus debate in our party on how we grow and achieve government. To do so, we need to remember and cherish our values. Why we formed as a party. What binds us together – the values that underpin our party – and drive the focus for policy. This paper is a contribution to that debate.
The Labour Party has been a radical force for change. The centre-left represented by the Tribune group is critical in framing the arguments that will win over traditional Labour voters and in explaining our values to those who have not voted for us in the past or have stopped seeing us as their first choice. We need to convince these people that it is our core values that they want to see applied in government.
Many of the things that Labour has championed are the things that people expect as basic rights and expectations today – things that became integral to the British Promise. This means we need to re-establish our credentials as the party that is at the core of that British Promise:
- that wants to see everyone flourish and helps the next generation aspire to do better
- that wants everyone to live a life they have reason to value
- recognises the mutual benefits of public and private endeavour
- that the public interest must be expressed by a dynamic, supportive state in society and the economy
- that is fair and is seen to be fair – on taxation, on rights and is on your side
- which is outward looking in the world and puts security of its people at its heart

The Foundation of the Tribune MPs’ Group in 1964 and the Battle of Ideas
Read moreOne day this summer, 6 July, marked sixty years since the death of Nye Bevan, and his legacy remains as important as ever. Our magnificent NHS is Labour’s greatest achievement, Bevan’s vision of a fair society made reality, and its value has been shown once again through this pandemic. Our thanks must go to its magnificent staff who give so much, every working day, to help others.
Broken promises: test and trace
Read moreAs each stage of the lockdown has been relaxed, the professionals advising the Government have always been clear to make the point that a fully functioning track and trace system would be needed if we were to avoid a serious spike in infections. Those countries around the world who have managed to keep infections down have been those which have a robust contact tracing system in place. Not only is there a skill in identifying who a person might have been in close enough contact with to transmit the virus to them, but it is also vitally important they are contacted and asked to self isolate as soon as possible so that they don’t potentially infect more people themselves.
STATEMENT ON ANTISEMITISM IN THE LABOUR PARTY
Read more“As members of the Tribune Group of MPs we are shocked at the accounts in recent days from former members of Labour Party about the handling of antisemitism complaints and also how individual employees have been treated. We support former employees in speaking out and commend their bravery in doing so. The Labour Party has always and always will support whistle blowers in coming forward when they are concerned about wrongdoing.
