- Labour's membership has significantly declined, falling to 333,235 at the end of last year from a 2019 peak of 532,046, with 37,215 members leaving in 2024.
- This downturn means over a third of Labour members have left since 2019, attributed partly to criticism over the party's positions on issues such as Gaza, welfare, and trans rights.

- Financial reports show Labour recorded a £3.8 million loss and the Conservatives a £1.9 million loss, while the Liberal Democrats, Reform UK, and Greens all reported surpluses.
- Labour faced scrutiny for the late submission of its financial accounts to the Electoral Commission, which is now reviewing the party's failure to meet the deadline.
