"aged between 15 and 27."

If you try and join the Labour Party using this link....

it says that advertises Young Labour aged 14 to 26.

"Membership is £1"

The same link shows that the £1 membership rate is only available for 14 to 19 year olds. After that, it is a minimum of £12 annually.

False advertising from Mr Jennings?

Don't worry son, you won't be the first Labour politician to get in a mess where numbers are concerned.

Warrington North councillor Lottie Ladbury (Poulton South) gave her full support to Warrington Young Labour, saying: “We can’t underestimate the effect of the Coalition government on young people in our society. With schemes like EMA scrapped, and tuition fees raised to unprecedented levels


Is the best we can hope for from young Tom to pass off the quotes attributed to Lottie Ladbury as his own?

Membership at £1 a year - sounds like a closing down sale to me.
