General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Brexit : Seven MPs resign from the Labour party !!! [View all]During Corbyn's leadership many of the more moderate Labour MPs have been hounded and insulted by elements in his party. Disagreement is fine. I do not expect a passionate Corbyn supporter to be much of a fan of Tony Blair, for instance, but this abuse of so-called 'Blairites' went much too far.
I was very proud to see Luciana Berger take a stand today. For a considerable period of time she faced, personally, the antisemitism rife in the Labour Party that Corbyn has done next to nothing to stop.
Certain members of the party have been calling for her deselection. They cannot call 'traitor' now she has left on her own accord.
Good on you, Luciana.
Nevermind Blair, this is currently not the party of Attlee, Hardie, Wilson, Callaghan, Kinnock or John Smith.
Let us hope they return to their genuine roots soon.
