Will YOU call on Labour’s would-be leaders to support the People’s 10 Pledges, rather than the Board of Deputies’?
A blogger who posted her own alternatives to the ’10 pledges’ – demands the Board of Deputies of British Jews tried to foist on the Labour Party – has won the support of thousands of readers.
This Site reported on Kay Green’s alternative pledges here – and she acknowledged the boost in a follow-up piece, calling for action to make Labour’s would-be leaders take notice.
Here are her main points:
Here’s a link to OUR Ten Pledges Don’t lose it.
- Send a link to your chosen leadership candidates, and ask them what they think.
- Send a link to your MP, and ask him/her if they endorse them.
- Send a link to Jennie Formby, and ask her to tell the NEC we prefer them.
- Send a link to ALL the NEC members!
- Present OUR Ten Pledges to your CLP as a motion to the NEC.
- Ask your CLP to put them forward as a motion for conference (and/or women’s conference).
- Present them to your Trade Union branch, socialist society or local assembly, and ask them to recommend them to the Labour Party.
- Send them to your favourite lefty blog or newspaper (mine’s the Morning Star) and ask them to write about them.
- Share this blog on different social media, and in your favourite groups, and ask them for more ideas about how to promote OUR Ten Pledges in the Party.
- Promise yourself you’ll never forget that leaders can be led. Whoever becomes leader, and whatever they may personally sign up to, if a membership of half a million are clear and politely persistent about wanting something different, different will happen.
And do please keep in touch. If you do any of these ten things, or if you think of other things to do, please pop back to the Ten Pledges blog post and leave a comment to let everyone know.
They may have knocked Jeremy Corbyn out (for now) but they can’t kill the movement he inspired unless we decide to do nothing.

If they don’t sign up to the BODs pledges the media will destroy them. If they do, whoever wins will be destroyed by the media anyway. They can’t win.
