WHAT TO EXPECT AS A MEMBER

As a member, you’ll be a key part of the team. You can help shape party policy, you can attend local meetings and you can even stand as a candidate.

So whether you want to chip in to help us reach our goals because you share our values, or because you have ambitions to change your community and country, the only place to start is to join local meetings, campaigning and meet fellow members.

Labour Councillors (Cllr.) 

All councillors represent Council Wards these are the boundaries used to form Labour Branches.

If members wish to stand in local elections they first apply to go onto the panel list. This is an interview and accreditation process undertaken by other councillors outside of Knowsley. Once on the panel list, you can apply for vacancies in wards or challenge an existing councillor. Then members of the Branch are asked to select their preferred candidate, ready for campaigning. This process usually takes some time before elections.

Trade Union & Affiliated Support

It is vital that we maintain and grow our links with Trade Unions  & affiliated groups across Knowsley and Merseyside. This is our link to thousands of working people. Trade Unionism and workers rights are the historic legacy of our values in action.
