Why should I/you join a political party?

I’m thinking of groups like Momentum, who managed to get Jeremy Corbyn elected leader twice. They didn’t come out of nowhere, although it would seem that way if you believe the press.

Having looked at the wiki article on Jon Lansman though, it seems like you still need to know the right people. I know some people who have contact with senior people in the Labour party, unfortunately they are the wrong people.

I guess I need to start using that Oxford Union card that I got when I first came to Oxford and tried to get into higher education (I got it when I was at Ruskin College, the Oxford Union don’t do that deal with them anymore).
