OFFICIALS from 90 Constituency Labour Parties (CLPs) have written to the party’s headquarters in protest at the ban on discussion of topics such as the withdrawal of the whip from Jeremy Corbyn.

In an open letter seen by the Morning Star, scores of CLP officials across Britain, from Orkney to Cornwall, raised their concerns with Labour general secretary David Evans.

Around 130 secretaries and chairs of CLPs said that Mr Evans’s restrictions on motions at meetings, “accompanied by threats and suspensions,” go against the human right to freedom of expression.
