@tompearce49@mastodon.scot Because his cabal made a point, starting with Bliar, of ejecting, sidelining or pissing-off every single decent one in the party, even deliberately throwing an election to get rid of Corbyn with massive smear tactics. I remember the days of having Tony Benn and Dennis Skinner as MPs (the latter was my MP for a while, then I moved away, then I moved back and had him again) - hardworking both in and out of Parliament, and not afraid to say what they thought.

@UkeleleEric@mstdn.social Ah, "The beast of Bolsover", yes. And most definitely Tony Benn. Neither of them would be permitted in today's party.
