Good morning comrades! Labour’s annual conference kicks off in sunny Brighton today and it’s set to be one of the most exciting gatherings in years. We usually comb through the fringe listings to point you towards the most interesting events. However, the conference programme was printed before Jeremy Corbyn rose to leader and the majority of notable speakers have either quit or been sacked from the shadow cabinet. This makes picking out the best fringes a little more difficult than in previous years.
Plus, in the brave new world of Corbyn’s leadership, the people to watch have changed. We’ve gathered a list below of events today featuring speakers both in and outside the new leadership team. Let us know if we’ve missed anything out – leave a comment below or message me on Twitter – I’m @SebastianEPayne.
