OULC members, Trinity term 2011

OULC is the home of the Labour Party and the left in Oxford. We take part in a huge amount of activity, with regular speaker events, great socials, policy discussions meetings and year-round campaigning for the Labour Party and progressive causes.
With a large membership and an even larger network of people who get involved, we are the biggest student Labour Club in the country.
We’ve earned real praise for our efforts with Stewart Wood, Ed Miliband’s special advisor, comenting that ‘OULC is held up as an exemplar of what needs to be done’ while in July 2009, Former Prime Minister Gordon Brown praised our ‘brilliant contribution to progressive politics.’
Some of the most interesting and high-profile people in British politics have spoken to us. Recent speakers inclde Peter Mandelson, Ed Miliband, Jon Cruddas, Neil Kinnock, Lord Adonis, Jack Straw, Harriet Harman, Alastair Campbell, and David Miliband.

We also produce a termly magazine called Look Left, with articles also published on this site.

Try out coming to one of our events. There’s no club line and we’re genuinely interested in open discussion and debate.
