Formerly called
Common Good Labour

Labour Together, formerly known as Common Good Labour, is a British think tank closely associated with the Labour Party which supported Keir Starmer in the 2020 Labour Party leadership election. It works to measure public opinion and develop political policy, and supported Labour in the 2024 general election as well as for a second term in government.[1] It is regarded by The Guardian, Politico, The Times and Business Insider as a highly influential group upon the current Labour Party,[2][1][3][4] and seen as an "incubator" of its 2024 manifesto.[3] It has sought to resemble the centre-right think tank Onward.[5]
