Delano: Why should voters choose the Labour party in the 12 December election? 

Fiona Urquhart and Thomas Evans: Because the Labour party believes in delivering decent education, healthcare, housing, working conditions and access to justice for all. The Labour party wants the UK to be a country that privileges the many, not the few, and has realistic economic plans to bring this about. The party's manifesto also shows that bringing about the environmental revolution would be at the centre of policy-making by a Labour government with the Green New Deal. Lastly, Labour believes in international cooperation and solidarity, which is vital in a time of rising unilateralism and overt xenophobia.

How important do you think is the issue of Brexit in informing people’s decision to vote?

It is clearly important. The consequences of Brexit and the significance of the relationship between the UK and the rest of the EU cannot be underestimated and may be clearer to many people now than in the 2016 referendum. Labour is proposing, therefore, a solution whereby the British people will have the final say between a new deal and remaining in the EU. This is democratic and avoids a hard Brexit, in stark contrast to other parties who are prepared to leave the EU whatever the political, economic and social damage.

However, it is also very important to stress that this election is not just about Brexit. Many of the problems that people in Britain face in their daily lives are not at all related to the EU and will not be solved by Brexit. This is why the Labour party is offering a comprehensive set of policies for the country, rather than just talking about Brexit.

What do you think of the UK media coverage of the different parties and their leaders? And to what extent could it play a role in the final result?

The UK media, particularly the tabloid press, has been very unfair towards Jeremy Corbyn. This is obviously a cause of concern, given the influence that certain newspapers still wield in the UK. Nonetheless, ideas can win through. Our result in the 2017 general election, which was far better than expected, and our mobilisation of young, first-time voters give us hope and confidence. After all, the Labour party is the largest political party in the UK with its members working passionately on the ground and via other media to convince fellow voters that Labour will deliver the change that the UK needs.

What is your prediction for the outcome of the election? If your party does not win the election, do you think Jeremy Corbyn should resign as leader?

The polls are showing the Conservatives ahead, but it must be recalled that [these polls] are not always good indicators in the UK's first-past-the-post electoral system, and Boris Johnson and his government are not universally loved. We hope that Labour will win a parliamentary majority and form the next government. Should there be a need to cooperate with other parties to govern and pass legislation, the Labour party are in a much better position to do this than the Conservatives.

If Labour does not win, there is no formal or informal obligation for the leader to resign, although some leaders have done so in the past, as he could.

How do you think the result will affect the lives of British citizens resident in Luxembourg?

Should Labour form the next government, we can be confident that our rights and prosperity here in Luxembourg will remain largely the same (whether Brexit occurs or not). A Conservative government would not be able to provide that same guarantee because they do not care about UK citizens in the EU-27. Three years of Conservative government negotiations with the EU have proved that.

We appreciate that the Luxembourg government has been very supportive of UK nationals in Luxembourg, but other EU governments may not be so supportive. A no-deal Brexit, which could still happen if the Conservatives win, would be very damaging to the UK and to other EU countries, with consequent economic effects on UK citizens in Luxembourg.
