IN recent years, Labour has become a firmly anti-austerity party committed to putting people and planet before private profit.

To me, this is the key issue in the current Labour leadership election and why I’m backing Rebecca Long Bailey, who has again and again showed she can walk the walk as well as talk the talk when it comes to fighting the Tories on this ground.
