Labour members and trade unionists to protest ‘another stitch-up’ by party leadership

LABOUR members and trade unionists are to protest outside a prospective parliamentary candidate selection meeting in Wolverhampton tonight against what they say is “another stitch-up” by the party’s leadership.

Wolverhampton South West Constituency Labour Party (CLP) members say that local potential candidates have been excluded and that three others, two of whom they have never heard of, have been imposed by the party’s national executive committee (NEC).

The CLP secretary said that members had been given just seven days’ notice of the meeting, at which one of the three imposed candidates will be formally selected.
