Warning: Len McCluskey
LEN McCLUSKEY has urged Labour supporters to reject “siren calls” of people campaigning for a second EU referendum in warning that their purpose is to “undermine” Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership.
Speaking on BBC Radio Five Live this morning, the Unite general secretary called on party members to resist being “seduced” by demands for a second Brexit vote after 17.4 million people voted to leave the EU three years ago.
Mr McCluskey added: “When you look at some of the Remainers and their leading lights – Alastair Campbell, Tony Blair, Peter Mandelson, Tom Baldwin – these are people who have indicated they would sooner have a Tory government than a Corbyn government.
Starmer sabotaged Labour with his second referendum campaign, mobilising a liberal backlash that sincerely felt progressive ideals were at stake — but the EU was then and is now an entity Britain should have nothing to do with, explains NICK WRIGHT
While Reform poses as a workers’ party, a credible left alternative rooted in working-class communities would expose their sham — and Corbyn’s stature will be crucial to its appeal, argues CHELLEY RYAN
With Reform UK surging and Labour determined not to offer anything different from the status quo, a clear opportunity opens for the left, argues CLAUDIA WEBBE
