The campaign group Compass last night announced that it is hosting a Labour leadership debate at its annual conference on Saturday 12 June.

The event, held in London annually, is likely to be the first opportunity for activists to question all of the candidates standing for Labour leader.

They did point out that Diane Abbott and Andy Burnham had yet to confirm, though the other candidates confirmed their attendance.

The annual conference will feature over 90 leading figures and 1,000 progressive activists.

The event is called ‘A New Hope (for British politics)’
