‘Mr Lewis has done more than the other candidates to advance an analysis of Labour’s problems that goes beyond the manifesto, leadership and Brexit to address the UK’s political system ...we hope that both Lewis and Thornberry make it to the next round.’ theguardian.com/commentisfre…
Labour members deserve a diverse range of candidates to choose from - and it's important that black voices are represented.

I’m impressed. This manifesto clearly builds on radicalism of 2019 with concrete proposals for winning in 2024.
Fixing our democracy, entrenching anti-racism, a Green New Deal rooted in towns, cities and regions.
These are new, big ideas that must be part of the debate.
Today I’m publishing my manifesto to start a debate within the Labour Party for how we can win power at the next election. Take a look 👀 cliveforleader.com/manifesto…

Labour MPs who have yet to nominate a candidate for Leader: Get Clive Lewis on the ballot chng.it/sxkGLNHx
Clive brings fresh and exciting ideas that have large backing among Labour members.
For Labour to have a full debate about its future, and about the society we want to build, @labourlewis must be on the ballot.

Since 1918 there have been 28 elections. Labour has only won 8 of them, often with small, unstable majorities.
To deliver on our promises, we need to work out where and how we can work with others who share our values, without compromising on principles.

Private schools are an engine of inequality. They need to be abolished.
We must invest in world-class education for every child, not just those whose parents have the money to pay.

From democratising our party to democratising our country, from building an economy that works for people and the planet to championing internationalism and defending migrants.
Read our manifesto: Transform to Win.

That's the socalist and @UKLabour commitment and spirit. That's why I support @labourlewis and I want him to be the next leader of our party.

We won't eradicate racism, sexism and other forms of bigotry without challenging people but also letting them learn.
I respect Clive's ability to admit mistakes and engage with criticism.
There is no socialism without feminism.
In the face of heightened tensions, it is Labour’s responsibility to stand against oppression, writes @labourlewis huffp.st/QxaSA2d

.@labourlewis: the working class does not just consist of socially conservative straight white men. It’s also the black Uber driver, homeless transgender teenager, migrant cleaner. If Labour doesn’t stand for them, it doesn’t stand for the working class.

I abhor transphobia and it has no place in society. There can be no ambiguity on people's basic rights. Trans people must have our full solidarity.
In a deeply racist and sexist society, we all have ideas to unlearn. Labour needs to listen but it also needs to lead the way:
"We need to meet people where they are, speak a language that everyone can understand, but not give an inch to prejudice."

Today @PeoplesMomentum will be deciding if and how to endorse a leadership candidate.
@labourlewis is calling for all members to have a say in this decision.
Our activists are more than footsoldiers. A mass movement needs democracy.
labourlist.org/2020/01/lewis…
Labour needs a candidate willing to talk about how we solve the climate emergency, about race, about constitutional reform and collaborative leadership.
It needs a candidate who can unapologetically champion immigration.
Clive needs to be on the ballot.
