Labour Party Headquarters (UK)

[2] In 1980, James Callaghan opened the Labour Party offices, which were located on 144-152 Walworth Road in Elephant and Castle, Southwark, costing £1.6 million.

[2] Labour MP Tony Benn had been born and grew up in a Victorian house on the same site, then known as at 40 Millbank, which was bombed during World War II.

[7] On 19 March 2002, Labour unveiled that its new headquarters would be located at a 11,200-square-foot (1,040 m2) open plan premises at 16-18 Old Queen Street, Westminster, which overlooked St James' Park, and that officials would move there in the summer before party conference season began.

[8] It ran in tandem with another office in North Shields, Tyneside,[5] to which half of the staff who worked at Millbank, particularly those involved in phone canvassing and research, were relocated.

[14] In 2015, CoStar News reported in December 2015 that Labour was planning to move into Southside, 105 Victoria Street, with the postcode SW1E 6QT, on a seven-year lease.

[21] The headquarters were the focus of a protest by pro-Palestinian activists in October of that year following an interview in which Labour leader Keir Starmer had suggested that Israel had “the right” to withhold energy and water from the Gaza Strip.

[22] In January 2024, Politico reported that Starmer was choosing to work from the new offices rather than in the Palace of Westminster, spending at least 2 days a week at the headquarters.

They stated that "Labour has blood on their hands,” and that “they are complicit in the murder of Palestinians, and millions of people around the world, as they continue to drive genocide.
