“This is a changed Labour Party”, Rachel Reeves told Labour Party conference as a young heckler was throttled and thrown to the ground by security for shouting: “We are still selling arms to Israel, I thought we were voting for change”.
If you can’t physically eject opposition, why not cynically manipulate the agenda? A motion tabled by Unite the Union with the support of other unions, opposing the cut to winter fuel payments was pushed back to the Wednesday graveyard shift, when the lights are all but turned off and most of the delegates have left.
Keir Starmer laughed at his own sick joke in response to his own heckler raising the mass slaughter of children in Gaza: “His pass must be from the 2019 conference.”
Starmer and the Blairite party machine have ruthlessly purged the left from the Labour Party since Corbyn’s general election defeat in 2019. An election in which the party received over 600,000 more votes than in its latest ‘landslide’ under Starmer.
How many more votes has Starmer lost Labour in his 2 months as prime minister?
