Labour lost some 91,000 members in 2021 and ended the year with a financial deficit of more than £5 million, the party’s latest accounts show.

The accounts, published by the Electoral Commission, said Labour’s membership fell from 523,332 at the end of 2020 to 432,213 in a year.

Do we know what percentage are women?

Momentum or rather Bromentum are the authoritarian bullies driving the identity agenda in Labour and alienating their more moderate voters. It's all sorts of confused and fucked up, god know what mental gymnastics the do to square their Marxism with identity politics. The oppressed and oppressor analysis is where the similarities between the two ideologies end.

Momentum can kid themselves all they like. Yes, anti semites and anti semite enablers have probably left Labour but that is nothing compared to the number of women they have lost because of the TRA nonsense

I don't know much about Momentum, other than they are unelected and are involved with steering the Labour party, but aren't they behind the pushing of TWAW and therefore controlling what the Labour MPs are saying?

I suppose to know whether this issue is the driver behind the loss of members, we'd need to see what a normal loss/gain is

Didn’t they throw most of them out?

I left Labour. I can’t support a party that thinks I’m just an idea.
