We are faced with an imminent election after a decade of Tory devastation. The choice is Johnson or Corbyn - and you choose to sit on the fence.
Imagine writing that Jeremy Corbyn has spent decades “not confronting antisemitism and Holocaust deniers”... demonstratively false.
I have made the truly agonising decision to leave the Labour Party after 55 years. I can no longer advocate voting Labour when it risks Corbyn becoming PM. I will continue to serve the people of Liverpool Riverside as I have had the honour to do since 1997.

What a disgrace of a tweet. Amber Rudd is 300 votes away from a Labour MP which Hastings so desperately needs, we don’t need to be “careful what we wish for” when we say
#RuddOut
Amber Rudd has screwed up big time, no question. And there is now clearly a significant question mark over her competence. But Labour has more common ground with her than so many of her potential successors - we should be careful what we wish for.

Genuinely speechless about this report. Some of it hardly surprises me and some of it makes me feel genuinely sick.
The NEC needs to see this in its entirely and disciplinary action needs to be taken.
Senior Labour officials laughing at the "truly repulsive" Diane Abbott for crying in a toilet, mocking Dawn Butler for daring to mention racism in Labour, and saying Iain Duncan Smith was "better than most of our shadow cabinet". These people ran Labour until very recently.

This is simply not the case - Jeremy Corbyn does not have the power to expel members, and neither do the NEC, only the NCC.
Misleading statements about our disciplinary processes do precisely nothing to help improve them as many on the NEC are aiming to do.
“He [Jeremy Corbyn] could tomorrow actually overturn the finding of this panel and get Chris Williamson expelled.”
Labour MP Margaret Hodge says Jeremy Corbyn is very much in control of the party and could “get Chris Williamson suspended” despite the NEC’s decision
