A statement from Wavertree.  I fully expect this to get the kind of media coverage that Streeting, Umunna and all the other twats got.

The Executive of Wavertree Constituency Labour Party wishes to correct both the inaccuracies reported in the media, and the false accusations of bullying, which followed our announcement on February 7 of a special CLP meeting to consider two motions of no confidence in our MP. The motions have since been withdrawn by their proposers and the special CLP meeting cancelled.

 

Our role as an elected executive is to provide administration, governance and direction for the CLP. We have no control over motions submitted by CLP members and very little choice on whether to debate legitimately submitted motions. The two no-confidence motions met these criteria; our only intervention was to agree to debate them at a special CLP meeting. The purpose of this was to give our MP the maximum opportunity to take part when the motions were debated.

 

Since the meeting was announced, we have become the subject of much media attention. This came as no surprise, given the controversial nature of the motions (neither of which mentioned antisemitism) submitted by CLP members.

 

But we strongly reject the media inaccuracies and the accusations of political bullying, for simply adhering to Party rules and doing our jobs.

 

Furthermore, we as an Executive have always and continue now to express total solidarity with Luciana as a victim of misogyny and of antisemitism – coming mostly from the far right. Our Chair is himself Jewish and the suggestion that the CLP Executive is in any way a party to bullying and antisemitism is a false and slanderous accusation.

 

Dr Alex Scott-Samuel – Chair
Nina Houghton – Secretary
On behalf of the CLP Executive,
Liverpool Wavertree Constituency Labour Party

And here's Jennie Formby's response.

Spot on from Formby. I'm not holding my breath for any apologies from the Anti-Corbyn Taliban.

This is a good look for Corbyn IMO. He could use this to his advantage the next time he’s accused of either being an anti-semite by the likes of Ian Austin and Joan Ryan, or being intolerant of differing views by Chuka and Kinnock.

Taliban? Thought they were misunderstood?

I've been chuckling at that each time I come on to the thread. He's so eager to put the boot in that he doesn't care about facts like that.

I’m a bit lost. What’s the line on attack today? What was it that Jeremy’s been accused to have done or failed to do?

Some random on twitter with the username Ron Moore MP posted something about the author of the Corbyn gossip book being Jewish. 

 

He's not an MP. Rico went on one about Labour MP's posting antisemitic stuff on Twitter. Despite the above - i.e. the person not even being an MP, let alone a Labour MP.

I got it wrong, I was hoodwinked.
