SHOWINGS of the film Oh Jeremy Corbyn: The Big Lie have been the focus of orchestrated attempts at suppression. No less significantly, when showings have taken place, they have also triggered important discussions on the future of the left.
In Scotland, suppression in Ayrshire was followed by a successful showing in West Dunbartonshire. Despite horrendous disruption by local road works, 80 people made it through — an unprecedented number for a local Morning Star meeting. Some travelled all the way from Ayrshire. Some had themselves fallen victim to the oppressive Starmer regime.
