It includes paying for access:

  • Invitation to exclusive 2024 Club receptions attended by special guests

  • Bi-annual meetings with senior Labour Party figures

And early access to conferences and receptions. This literally prices the working class out of participation in the party.

    Labour make 10x as much as Tories in memberships already btw. Combined with Trade Union donations Labour has more than enough money for British politics. He’s just wanted a certain type of membership.

      This, combined with whoring the party out to billionaires, is designed to replace union funding. They're trying to detach from the unions.

      I assume that this is about stratifying the membership so that they "know" which parts to listen to. The Labour apparatchiks hate the new members that came in under Corbyn.
