Labour Leave is a campaign group within the UK Labour Party, campaigning for the United Kingdom to vote to leave in the upcoming EU referendum. The group is led by eurosceptic Labour MPs Kate Hoey, Graham Stringer, Kelvin Hopkins, and Roger Godsiff, and is chaired by the largest individual donor to the Labour Party, John Mills, former chair of the cross-party Vote Leave campaign, which the group supports.

Position within Vote Leave

The organisation's position within the Vote Leave campaign has been seen as precarious, a source close to the campaign told The Morning Star, due to a perceived domination of the Vote Leave campaign by Conservative and UKIP officials. Of Vote Leave's 17-strong governing board, only two members (Mills and Stringer) are members of Labour Leave. In response to this, the idea of a wholly independent campaign to Vote Leave and Leave.EU has been suggested, with MPs such as Hoey and Hopkins favouring the idea.
