The future of the left since 1884

The equality question: Why Labour should re-embrace its egalitarian roots

Our new pamphlet makes the case for the fight against inequality to be a core mission for Labour.

Share

In this pamphlet, Stewart Lansley shows how poverty and inequality have once again become deeply institutionalised – and at a growing social, economic and human cost. He makes a powerful case for Labour to return to its egalitarian roots, with a new commitment to make Britain a more equal place. Such a strategy would aim to raise the life chances of all, with a guarantee of an equal share in social and economic progress.
