On 14 October 2021, the Labour Party revealed the results of its ‘future candidates programme’ in emails issuing acceptances and rejections to thousands of politicians and activists who applied to be shortlisted as Labour candidates for wanting to stand at elections for local and national offices.[1]
There were 360 places available; for Parliamentary seats, in Westminster, Cardiff Bay and Holyrood. Also there are spaces for future candidates in elections for Councillors, Mayors and Police Commissioners. Applications opened in July 2021 and closed 13 August 2021. The training will run October 2021 – December 2021 and January 2022 – July 2022.[2]
The UK Parliamentary selections are expected to begin in early 2022 when the new constituency boundaries are announced.
The process was created by Ed Miliband in 2011.[3]
The selection programme is believed by the Labour Left to be an elitist stitch-up, which is overseen by right-wingers such as Luke Akehurst.[4]
