'I always try and remember in the words of Labi Siffre: ‘The further you take my rights away the faster I will run’' DawnButlerBrent on why she wants to be deputy leader

The autopsy on why we lost will take time and there are no easy answers, but this should not stop Labour from developing a strategy to win again.I am a fighter and a winner and I always say: don’t lose, learn. It is for this reason I am running for deputy leader and am determined to ensure that the recent election is the last time we lose.

Our greatest asset is our activists. I travelled the country during the election, visiting 41 seats, I saw people out in the cold, dark and rain canvassing for a Labour victory. Those activists need motivating and we can’t afford to lose them, or their enthusiasm. Instead, we must take community activism to the next level.

I came into Parliament from the trade union movement where I trained organisers and created the C.O.R.E programme – Campaign, Organise, Recruit and Educate. As deputy leader I’ll implement this strategy, which will be fundamental in our fightback into government.We will Campaign, ensuring that from day one we reach out locally in all communities. Our motto must be: if it matters to them, it matters to us. This will build trust in Labour again.
