Object history
The 'Mobilise for Labour Democracy' badge was produced in the early 1980s, when the RFMC (Rank and File Mobilising Committee) was formed. Different left-wing groups gathered in the committee to campaign for more democracy within the Labour party, securing an electoral college for the election of Labour leaders.
RFMC organised large rallies across the UK and set up a broadsheet titled 'Mobilise for Labour Democracy'.
