The United Kingdom

PPI’s Project on Center-Left Renewal, based in the United Kingdom, resumes our long-running conversation with center-left parties in Europe and around the world. Its purpose is to exchange ideas, strategies and tactics for making center-left parties more competitive and improve their governing performance. Led by Claire Ainsley, former Executive Director for Policy for Labour Party Leader Keir Starmer, the project has contributed immensely to a renewed transatlantic dialogue between Labour and Democrats.
