Labour Leave is a campaign group within the UK Labour Party, campaigning for the United Kingdom to vote to leave in the upcoming EU referendum.[1][2] The group is led by eurosceptic Labour MPs Kate Hoey, Graham Stringer, Kelvin Hopkins, and Roger Godsiff,[3] and is chaired by the largest individual donor[4] to the Labour Party, John Mills,[5] former chair of the cross-party Vote Leave campaign,[6] which the group supports.[7]
Position within Vote Leave
The organisation's position within the Vote Leave campaign has been seen as precarious, a source close to the campaign told The Morning Star, due to a perceived domination of the Vote Leave campaign by Conservative and UKIP officials. Of Vote Leave's 17-strong governing board, only two members (Mills and Stringer) are members of Labour Leave.[6] In response to this, the idea of a wholly independent campaign to Vote Leave and Leave.EU has been suggested, with MPs such as Hoey and Hopkins favouring the idea.[6]
