lawyers for @jeremycorbyn have failed to get the courts to force @UKLabour to release documents -including minutes or notes of a meeting between @Keir_Starmer and the former leader's supporters incl @LenMcCluskey and communications between the party leadership and Margaret Hodge
The @UKLabour lawyer denied that the documents being sought existed and the judge said -in effect- even if they did, they did not need to be disclosed in order to bring a case against the party over the suspension of the whip. Meanwhile discussions have continued
Behind the scenes on how the whip may be restored and if a full blown legal challenge can be averted. @jeremycorbyn's backers say it was wrong to suspend the whip when he had been restored to party membership by an NEC panel following an inquiry in to his comments re #EHRC report
As things stand, @jeremycorbyn is likely to proceed with legal action
