Garry Heath: Party members need to have their say in this leadership election

The Party needs to treat its members with respect and be a far more democratic in its structure.

The Party Board recommends setting back the date of the leadership declaration to 9th September

The 1922 Committee advised that the race end a week earlier.

The 1922 Committee’s Executive has decided the next Party leader will be elected by 2nd September

The Executive also chose to reject proposals to extend the shortlist, or to require that it include a female candidate.

Andrew Rosindell: Party members should have a greater choice of candidates in the next leadership election. Here’s a plan for reform.

They should be able to choose between four people rather than only two.

Could Trump happen here?

The current price of protection against Tea Party politics is the risk of Potemkin parties.

Feldman Review decision postponed. Downing Street climbs down.

The Chairman’s letter promises “additional benefits to enhance the membership experience”. Wouldn’t it be most enhanced by members having a bigger say?

We now know more about the Feldman Review’s proposals for merging Associations, and it’s quite troubling

Associations may be wholly merged, rather than simply band together while maintaining control of their own resources.

Downing Street underestimated Conservative opposition to Remain. Is is underestimating opposition to the Feldman Review?

A key issue is CCHQ’s plan to merge all Associations into larger federations.

How Trump (and Corbyn) could kill off the democratic reform of the Party

Fear of the fate that is set to befall the Republicans – the same that befell Labour last year – is hobbling the prospects for the Feldman review.
