Our movement is one of radical optimism.

Not seeing the world just as it is, but how it could be.

Such a treat to speak to @mattforde about power, ownership and seizing the co-op moment🐝🐝
How do we build change that lasts?

On @mattforde's The Political Party, our Interim General Secretary @CaitProwle makes the case for putting power and ownership directly into the hands of people and communities.

Because once you own something, it’s yours.

It was great interviewing @CaitProwle on this week’s episode.

What does the @CoopParty stand for?

How is it distinct from @UKLabour?

And now that @andyburnham is our first Co-operative Party PM, what does that mean for the country?

This Remembrance Sunday, we remember those who lost their lives in conflict, and the sacrifices made by generations in the service of peace.

Lest we forget.

Here's the text of our statement:

“I'm delighted to welcome Jim Robbins as the new General Secretary of the Co-operative Party.
 
“Jim brings a wealth of experience as a Labour and Co-operative councillor, council leader and champion of co-operative local government. He knows what it means to put co-operative principles into practice, giving communities a greater say and a genuine stake in their future.
 
“As we approach the centenary of our electoral agreement with the Labour Party, we have an incredible opportunity to build on a hundred years of co-operation and make democratic ownership an even greater part of Britain's future through Andy Burnham's government.
 
“I also want to pay tribute to Joe Fortune for his leadership and dedication to our Party. He has made an enormous contribution to our movement and helped put us in a strong position for the years ahead. I would also like to thank Caitlin Prowle for her service as Interim General Secretary, steering the Party brilliantly over the last few months.
 
“I'm confident Jim will bring the energy, experience and ambition to build on that progress, strengthen our movement and help deliver the next chapter of co-operative politics.”

– Jim McMahon MP, Chair of the Co-operative Party @JimfromOldham

The Energy Independence Bill is a major step forward for community ownership.

By requiring developers to offer communities up to a 20% stake in new renewable projects, it will give local people the opportunity to own and benefit from clean power on their doorstep.
New laws to help cut bills, protect consumers, crack down on rogue companies and put more power in the hands of communities.

Today we’re introducing the Energy Independence Bill, a fairer energy system that works for people.

Energy is an everyday essential.

No one should be ripped off by rogue companies or see bills rise by price shocks thousands of miles away.

This is a first downpayment on fixing a broken system, protecting consumers from unfair costs & putting the public back in control.
