Last Tuesday, (27th Jan) I copied the new Clause 4 from the Labour Party's website. It is here below.

I know the old version of Clause IV by heart. It used to be printed on all Labour Party Membership Cards.

Since I copied the new Clause 4, I have asked myself, "Is the original in copyright?" You may want to ask the Labour Party.

The home page of the Labour Party's website is accessible here below.

I'm sure the Labour Party would no want the old version of Clause IV to stand on its own without clear information about how it has been modified.

[edit] =

"Blair generally prefers to describe himself as a social democrat". -- Is there any substantiation for this claim? Can anyone cite an instance where Blair has publicly defined himself as a social democrat? Also, how relevant is it? Certainly we wouldn't want to imply that his preference (if that is what it is) is shared by other members of the party. -86.142.110.97 20:18, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, the replacement text

"The Labour Party is a democratic socialist party. It believes that by the strength of our common endeavour we achieve more than we achieve alone, so as to create for each of us the means to realise our true potential and for all of us a community in which power, wealth and opportunity are in the hands of the many, not the few, where the rights we enjoy reflect the duties we owe, and where we live together, freely, in a spirit of solidarity, tolerance and respect."

would hardly seem to describe Blair's position, would it? BTLizard (talk) 15:45, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
