  • The 2016 Labour Party leadership election was called when a challenge to Jeremy Corbyn as Leader of the Labour Party arose following criticism of his approach to the Remain campaign in the referendum on membership of the European Union and questions about his leadership of the party. Following a period of tension over Corbyn's leadership, the immediate trigger to events was the Leave result of the referendum. Hilary Benn, the Shadow Foreign Secretary, was sacked by Corbyn on 25 June after Benn expressed no confidence in him. More than two dozen members of the Shadow Cabinet resigned over the following two days, and a no-confidence vote was supported by 172 MPs in the Parliamentary Labour Party, against 40 supporting Corbyn. It was reported that Tom Watson, the Deputy Leader, told Corbyn that he would face a challenge to his position as leader. Corbyn stated that he would not resign. By the end of June, Angela Eagle and Owen Smith were being promoted as intending to contest the leadership. Eagle announced her candidacy on 11 July, and Smith did likewise on 13 July. The National Executive Committee decided that, as the incumbent, Corbyn would be automatically included on the ballot without requiring nominations from the parliamentary party; some political analysts had previously predicted that Corbyn would struggle to obtain the requisite number of signatures had that been required. Eagle pulled out of the race on 19 July, leaving Smith to challenge Corbyn for the leadership in a head-to-head race; Eagle said that she would back Smith after she had attracted fewer nominations. Smith told the BBC that Eagle was a "star" and that she would be "at [his] right hand" if he won the leadership. The result was announced on 24 September 2016. Corbyn won the election with 313,209 votes, increasing his share of the vote from 59.5% to 61.8% compared with the result of the 2015 leadership election and receiving some 62,000 more votes than in 2015.

  • L’élection de 2016 à la direction du Parti travailliste britannique a lieu du 22 août au 21 septembre 2016 à la suite de la contestation du chef du Parti travailliste Jeremy Corbyn par Angela Eagle. Jeremy Corbyn, représentant de l'aile gauche du parti, a été élu chef en 2015 mais sa position est contestée par une partie des membres du parlement travaillistes, notamment après le référendum sur l'appartenance du Royaume-Uni à l'Union européenne du 23 juin 2016. Malgré la démission de la majorité des membres du cabinet fantôme et un vote de défiance des députés, Corbyn refuse de démissionner ce qui pousse les députés Angela Eagle et Owen Smith à lancer une contestation selon les règles internes du Parti travailliste. Après le retrait d'Angela Eagle, seuls restent en course Jeremy Corbyn et Owen Smith. À l'issue du scrutin, Jeremy Corbyn se maintient à la tête du Parti travailliste en recueillant 62 % des voix.

  • 2016年工黨黨魁選舉（英語：2016 Labour Party leadership election）緣由於2015年9月杰里米·科尔宾當選工黨黨魁後，反對者批評他在英國去留歐盟公投中沒有給予大力支持而作出的挑戰。 科尔宾領導的緊張時期間，英國公民公投決定離開歐盟，彭浩禮隨即因為曾表示不信任科尔宾而在6月25日被解職；隨後兩天多名成員相繼辭職，國會工黨議員中亦有172名議員支持對他發起不信任投票，僅有40名支持郝爾彬。據工黨副黨魁湯姆·沃特森稱，他曾向郝爾彬指出其作為領導者的地位將面臨挑戰，但科尔宾表示不會辭職。 6月下旬時，安吉拉·伊格爾和歐文·史密斯相繼被指出有興趣參選黨魁：伊格爾於7月11日宣布參選；而史密斯於7月13日作出同樣舉動。中央行政委員會之後決定作為現任黨魁的郝爾彬將自動參加是次選舉，毋須經國會工黨議員提名。此前一些政治分析人士預測，郝爾彬如果不能自動參選，將很難獲得提名的必要數量。 7月19日伊格爾退出選舉，剩下史密斯與郝爾彬兩人競逐黨魁。伊格爾指出，她在獲得較少提名後就決定改為支持史密斯；而史密斯則在BBC的訪談中透露伊格爾是一位「明星」，如果他勝出選舉，伊格爾將會是（他的）右手。 (zh)
