The Movement’s Council brings together the Board with around 100 representatives elected by our grassroots activists and members throughout the UK. The Council debates and discusses topical political developments, determines the Movement’s responses, formulates public policy between General Meetings and discusses campaigning and communications strategy. It appoints one or more Conveners to help steer its agenda and activities.
