1/ Unfortunately left MPs have created this situation through inaction. Great politicians the world over (see Latin America) fight for the rights of those they represent, even risking their lives. Labour members have been left to fend for themselves. skwawkbox.org/2022/01/21/str…
2/ One exception is of course @jeremycorbyn who reportedly made the readmission of those suspended for defending him a condition of his own return to the PLP. He is the only one who hasn't prioritised his place in the PLP above the interests of ordinary members...
3/ This is presumably why he alone remains without the whip. Worth highlighting that he ALONE lost the whip for telling the truth. Where's the solidarity? The move in Streatham is likely laying the ground for reelection...
4/4 But members have been purged, bullied and abused as they did as they were asked and fought while the PLP looked on. The collapse of the Labour left membership means there may not be enough pple still within the party to save MP's positions. Looks like endgame. Was avoidable.
