Labour Revokes Owen Jones’s Conference Pass Over Safeguarding Complaints

Labour cites safeguarding obligations following complaints about his conduct.

Overview

  • The party notified Jones by email that his accreditation was cancelled with immediate effect.
  • Labour referenced responsibilities to protect delegates, staff, volunteers, and visitors, and did not disclose details of the complaints.
  • Jones posted the email on X and called the move “absolutely pathetic, Trumpian behaviour.”
  • He argued the decision followed his attempts to question ministers on Britain’s role regarding Israel.
  • Jones said this is his first revocation in a decade of filming at party conferences, and the email says he may reapply in future years.
