Blairite high priest David Miliband has accused Jeremy Corbyn of trying to “wreck” Sir Keir Starmer’s leadership in an escalation of Labour’s bitter civil war.
Mr Corbyn, alongside former shadow chancellor John McDonnell and seven other former shadow ministers, have accused party staff of deliberately scuppering the 2017 election due to factional differences.
The comments came as part of a submission to an internal inquiry into the leaking of a 860-page dossier which presented evidence that some Labour top party officials had intentionally starved target seats of funds.
The Guardian claims it accuses a group of senior staffers of setting up a “shadow operation” to sabotage Mr Corbyn’s chances of becoming prime minister, and concludes that use of funds should be investigated by the inquiry to establish “whether it may have constituted fraud.”
The claims are denied by the staff named.
The Blairites have no sense of justice or accountability and they definitely do not want transparency. They want the so-called #Labourleaks report to disappear, to be swept under the carpet.
The hypocrisy in Millabands outcry is that for five very long years, the centrist within the Labour Party have worked harder to oppose and undermine Jeremy Corbyn than they have in opposing the Tory Government or representing the very people who this Party was created for.
The leaked report realised in April revealed a catalogue of Whatsapp messages that showed that senior Labour Party officials worked against Corbyn in a bid to LOSE the 2017 General Election. Labour lost by around 2,500 votes.
David Miliband talks about moving on, forgetting about what could have been as if it was just an incident, one of those things, a chance not taken or a road not travelled.
It was not this it was a conspiracy to stop a Left-leaning government taking power, to stop Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime minister.
The reality is and cannot be denied, Jeremy Corbyn could well have been Prime Minister for the last three years had it not been for those staffers those Labour Party officers outed in the #LabourLeaks,
Imagine, the NHS fully funded, public services returned to the public, homelessness eradicated, child poverty gone.
Instead, we are seeing the largest transfer of public money in history a country’s wealth going into the hands of the private sector under the cover of the coronavirus pandemic, our money going to prop up an already collapsing system.
A Corbyn government would have used it to invest in a sustainable Britain, infrastructure a new green deal, kick-starting manufacturing allowing us to produce our own Personal Protective Equipment for NHS staff instead of panic-buying millions of pounds worth of duff gear from the Tory’s friends.
