• FOLLOWING the local Labour Party AGMs recently “no factionalism or disunity” in Keir Starmer’s name could not be further from the truth.

Holborn and St Pancras Constituency Labour Party must be one of the most disheartening CLPs to be a member of if you have any hint of the desire for true socialism.

At the recent branch AGMs socialist candidates were ignored and voted down.

And now to make a bad situation worse the leader’s office has engaged someone – to trawl social media – who used to be employed as a military intelligence officer in Israel.

One can only wonder what his duties were in his previous role. I also wonder why Labour feel the need to create the job description that they have.

The way to achieve unity is not by suppressing criticism and free speech. So what next Keir?
