Labour has announced it will refuse to engage in power-sharing agreements with local councillors who do not publicly reject the party’s updated policy position. The move signals a hardening of its stance on internal divisions, potentially reshaping how it collaborates with allies at a local government level. The decision comes amid ongoing tensions over the party’s direction, raising questions about its ability to maintain unity in governance. Councillors and political observers will be watching closely to see how this policy plays out in practice.
Labour says it will end power-sharing deals with councillors that do not disown the party's new stance.
