Labour donor backs Corbyn's anti-austerity agenda

"Austerity is the crisis itself, not the solution to the crisis." - Alexis Tsipras View this email in your browser Today we report that a key Labour donor has backed Jeremy Corbyn's anti-austerity agenda. JML chairman, John Mills has warned the party's moderate wing that adopting austerity-lite policies would leave the party unelectable. Mills is hoping to persuade the shadow chancellor John McDonnell to adopt a more radical agenda, when he meets with him tomorrow. Elsewhere, we have a piece about a new campaign which is launched this week to challenge the negative rhetoric around migration. The international 'I am a migrant' campaign will use the personal stories of immigrants to highlight the contributions they make to society.
