Momentum say: "prepare for power"

MOMENTUM members and Labour leaders in Manchester called today for the party to “dismantle” the old economy as part of a radical programme in the face of Brexit — and a looming change of government.

More than 400 people attended a rally organised by the Manchester branch of the Jeremy Corbyn-supporting group on Saturday afternoon.

Speakers included Labour national executive committee members Lara McNeill and Navendu Mishra, Renewal journal editor Christine Berry and journalist Owen Jones.
