Remainer who voted Labour in Wandsworth? Help demand a Peoples vote motion from Labour councillors!
Do we have any Remainers who voted Labour in Putney, Wandsworth, Battersea or Tooting in GE17 on here who are appalled by the leaderships' dishonest fudge on Brexit and would like to help do something about it at a local level within the borough of Wandsworth?
Local Labour councillors are just as split as the Parliamentary Labour party and there are some lexit cllrs who keep blocking a proper Peoples Vote motion being brought to the Council. I'm planning on bringing a petition to Wandsworth Labour asking the leader, Simon Hogg, to start being honest with their voters and bring an unequivocal PV motion, but I need some help from Labour voters and ideally members too.
If anyone is interested in LOCAL campaigning or advocacy for a PV, and has an interest in local politics, please get in touch. Thanks
PS. I hope this is entirely within the guidelines on posting, given it applies to Wandsworth Labour, Wandsworth Council, and a LOCAL petition.
NB. There are many Lab cllrs who have been fantastic in their support of Labour policy and a PV, these include Cllr Fleur, Graham Henderson, Tony Belton, Claire Gilbert, Sue McInney, Candida Jones, Jeremy Ambache and Hector Denfield. There are others who pretend to be but then vote against it internally, which explains why a proper PV motion hasn't yet been brought. I am on a mission to find out precisely who is blocking this from happening and strongly encouraging them to be honest with their voters about their position. It's not OK for Cllr Hogg to pretend Wandsworth Labour are united in seeking a PV because it's untrue, in fact he himself has been one of the greatest barriers to this motion being brought.
If anyone would like to drop Cllr Hogg a line asking for a Peoples Vote motion, you can do so here Cllr.S.Hogg@wandsworth.gov.uk
Why not copy in the Labour (or Tory for fun) councillors from your own ward too, you can find them all here https://democracy.wandsworth.gov.uk/mgMemberIndex.aspx
