Labour Leave is a Eurosceptic campaign group in the United Kingdom.

Kate Hoey was another co chair in the group, until she reportedly resigned in February 2016. Labour MP Gisela Stuart did not participate in the group, instead chairing the official leave campaign, Vote Leave.
John Mills officially resigned as chairman of Labour Leave, in July 2018.
