A RECENTLY suspended member of Labour’s national executive committee (NEC) has spoken out against “frightening” efforts to “destroy” the Labour left.


Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi was notified that her membership had been suspended just weeks after she was voted onto the NEC, meaning she was prevented from attending committee meetings held at the Labour party conference in Liverpool this week.


Speaking to the Morning Star outside Labour conference, Ms Wimborne-Idrissi, who is a prominent member of the left-wing Jewish Voice for Labour group, said she was angered by the suspension.
