Independent MP Jeremy Corbyn has laid out a political strategy for the Left in an article for the Guardian newspaper<\/a>, saying he is “planting the seeds for a new way of doing politics” in Islington and beyond.<\/p>\n

Mr Corbyn will hold monthly “people\u2019s forums”, which he described as “a shared, democratic space” for local campaigns, and trade, tenants\u2019 and debtors\u2019 unions.<\/p>\n

These forums, Mr Corbyn believes, are the basis of a new grassroots organising model.<\/p>\n

He wants it to be replicated across the country and called for people to “stand up for themselves and against those who have ignored their demands for peace and humanity”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Addressing speculation about a new political party, Corbyn says he has “no doubt” that this movement will offer an electoral challenge “capable of challenging the stale two-party system”, but not before community power has been built “from below”.<\/p>\n

Citing “public discontent with a broken political system”, Corbyn says this movement will grow as long as issues like child poverty and genocide go unaddressed by those in power. <\/p>\n

“Make no mistake”, Corbyn warned, “this is just the beginning\u2026 of a movement which can win with \u2013 and for \u2013 communities all over the country.”<\/p>\n

The intervention comes after Corbyn was re-elected as an Independent in Islington North, beating the Labour candidate by more than 7,000 votes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
