I ' believe ' the appointment of Jules Rutherford as Head of of the Labour Party Membership has gone ahead . Given the climate I am surprised this has not raised more interest , at least questioned given the climate .
I was intrigued to note it was Jules Rutherford who raised a petition to kick Alistair Campbell out of the Labour Party . It appears the Labour system of ' Auto Expelled ' was only made to one person, Campbell , whilst there was a chorus of others who openly state they did the exact same and did not vote Labour in the European Election.
'. A member of the Party who joins and/ or supports a political organisation other than an official Labour group or other unit of the Party, or supports any candidate who stands against an official Labour candidate, or publicly declares their intent to stand against a Labour candidate, shall automatically be ineligible to be or remain a Party member, subject to the provisions of Chapter 6.I.2 below of the disciplinary rules."
I understand the need for disciplinary rules but should that not apply to ALL Labour members and how does that fit with Labour members who voteagainst Labour by ' Tactical Voting '?
