Momentum spreads organising skills north of the border

MOMENTUM trained dozens of Scottish Labour activists to pass on organising skills at the weekend, in the first session of its kind north of the border, writes Conrad Landin.

The left group’s session at the Pearce Institute in Govan, Glasgow, targeted active members from across Scotland.

Participants are in turn expected to lead training sessions in community organising.
