This R&D provides resources on the British Labour Party’s leadership election. Ed Miliband stepped down as leader when the Labour Party lost twenty-six seats in the British parliamentary elections earlier in the year. Reports say that Labour may choose Jeremy Corbyn as its new leader, but some observers say that Corbyn is too far to the left to help Labour regain office. The voting in the leadership election will begin this Friday (August 14) and the results will be announced on September 12.
