Jeremy Corbyn won the UK Labour Party leadership on 12 September 2015, stunning both his fans and his critics with a huge first-preference vote of over 59%.
Corbyn’s policy preferences in such areas as investment in public housing, health and transport; support for public education and collective bargaining; and his opposition to austerity economics, are likely to find favour with many Vintage Red members.
VR Convenor Jane Timbrell sent him a message of congratulations as soon as the news came through!
