SOCIALIST Labour MPs are reluctant to criticise Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership for fear of being “purged” from the party, members of the Socialist Campaign Group alleged today.
Some left-wing candidates have been blocked from standing as Labour candidates at the next election amid reports of a clampdown on supporters of ex-leader Jeremy Corbyn, who was thrown out of the parliamentary party in 2020.
Socialist Campaign Group members told the Telegraph newspaper that they were reluctant to go public with their concerns over Sir Keir’s leadership for fear of suffering the same fate.
