    As much as I thought her original comments were disappointingly wrongheaded, or at the very least poorly put, she's right about the procedural issues with this investigation. It stands as yet another example of the Starmer project's chief goal: to purge the party of its left.

        Ah yes, divisive candidates who've held their seats in successive elections for how long now? If you think the purge is anything other than bitter factionalism – by this point – you are sorely mistaken.

          Holding a seat for a long time is not mutually exclusive with being divisive. Maggie Thatcher held a seat for a long time and she was a removed. 🤣

          She's divisive to the current election chances of Labour because of her blasé attitude towards the Jewish community and her support of Corbyn. Both of which are going to hurt Labour if left in place.
