Maybe.
Have to admit I never expected to get to vote on the leader of the Labour party.

Yeah they let anyone join them these days. I'm glad you've been paying your political levy aracer - despite being a rabid Tory.
Of course there might not be any election at all.....last time the Stalinist clique who control New Labour, made certain there was a change of leader without one.

Well I've not chosen not to pay it, so I presume that means I am - hadn't realised before reading up on this that there was an option. An oversight I'll make sure to correct once I've done my democratic duty
I'll have you know I don't even froth at the mouth any more though.

LOL ! Brilliant !
And good for you for coming on here and admitting that you're a plonker !
....... I did wonder why you had been paying your political levy !

Of course it's always possible I did opt out and it's just my memory which is going...

Well, I voted for my local Member of Parliament, not for who is going to be PM....
So, you're not actually voting for who gets to be PM, but the leader of a political party.
Same, but different....

Is the political levy not an opt in?

I can't help thinking that someone like you should have sorted out the question of you being an affiliated member of the Labour Party earlier aracer
.....how sloppy of you

False alarm. I'm stupid enough to not be able to read properly which unions are affiliated to Labour and post a thread about it, but not quite stupid enough to pay a political levy to them.

Im with TJ, pretty sure the politcal levy is an opt in with union membership.

I checked - it is opt out. Not as I remembered.
I will get a vote as a political levy paying union member if there is a contest

Well finding out whether or not a trade union is affiliated to the Labour Party is hardly a difficult task. So if you didn't know that, what makes you think you would have known whether or not you were paying your political levy ?

I take it that you are an individual member of the Labour and an affiliated member ?
.......or are you an MP ?
Or one of these dodgy characters who joins 2 unions ?

and there was me thinking you were a LibDem

there's no pulling the wool over your eyes
2 unions it is - one I paid up for the year last Dec, the other I've joined in order to be a part of the same union where I'm working now
I wonder if the first one will give me a refund?
