Exclusive: ex-party chair says fear of Starmer ‘purge’ may lead to MPs sitting as independents

Labour MPs who support Jeremy Corbyn have discussed resigning from the parliamentary party and sitting as independents amid fears that Keir Starmer could lead a “mass purge” of the left, an ally of the former leader has warned.

go right now! your next anyway, the tide has turned.

Sounds like a great idea - don’t let the door hit you in the butt!!! NO room EVER for bigots, racists, and haters!!! That’s been a tremendous problem with the current American incompetent administration!!!

They should breakaway and form a separate true Labour Party. Starmer's Party is Blairite Tory Party. An insult to Nye Bevan.

shut the door on your way out x

Good riddance

And then they took a look at their salary package and thought 'well let's not be hasty'

Bye bye

Good

Now isn’t that the IanLaveryMP who chaired the Labour Party during its period of nurturing antisemitism and protecting antisemitic bullies? I didn’t hear any word of apology from him.

That would be fine but Lavery will not go as could not get another job on his salary. Just posturing

Don't slam the door on your way out.

Yes good news please leave

Good

'warns' 😂😂

Time for them all to quit Labour and stand as Momentum in the next election. Let the electorate pass judgement. They won’t obviously as the pull of the gravy train is very strong .

They won’t quit the gravy train .

In other news, tumour warns calling the surgeon.

Perhaps it’s for the best.

Good!

Who’s he threatening, Labour or the Tories?

Bye then!!

Labour will only get elected if all those nutters leave.

The same people who wanted to deselect sitting MPs and to parachute Momentum candidates into safe seats are now complaining about a purge

Go on then - off you pop.

A 'change of direction' to winning elections probably...

No doubt they will be present but not involved in the meeting.

If only they'd done this before the last general election

Tell him to

What are they waiting for!

Oh please do. Fantastic news...do you need me to hold the door?

Remember this?

byelections please

They discussed it. Realised they had cushy, well paid jobs and decided not to. They also chose not to repeat what Corbyn said because they don’t stand by him THAT much. IanLaveryMP hasn’t the guts or conviction of the Change UK MPs.

The door’s there. Have you sacked Steve Bell yet?

Lavery ran such a brilliant election campaign for the Tories.

Lavery should do more than discuss it. He should put his money where his big mouth is...

He'd bet his house on it?

Woo hoo, the exit is over there, to the left obvs

Ironic hearing about fear of a purge from people who had absolutely no problem purging others when JC was in charge

The quicker the better

Let them go - we need Labour MPs who actually want to win an election

Stop Being Precious. Just Get The Bloody Tories Out. That's Your Job, All Of You. By Hook Or By Crook.

Great - hope he is first to go tbh !

'Warns' Ian f*cking Lavery Massive cause to celebrate more like!! Back under your stone, lad!

Good.

Bye bye you won’t be missed.

We should stop allowing them to hide as lefties. Call them out. They are Anti-Jew and as such inhabit the space of AH and the other fascists. No place for these types in modern politics. Out the apologists.

Bye!

Good let’s get rid of the extreme left... something the Tories should have done long ago too!

👋

They could form the Jezzuits Party.😉

Because obviously *that’s* the thing to focus your energy on now. Not expressing their solidarity with Jewish people or discussing how we really do root out antisemitism. Sighs.

1. The accusation isn’t that Corbyn is anti Semitic. It’s that he denied it at the time and crucially continued to do so today. And yet there is some evidence of it in the report.

Bye, bye

Please

Just leave....so that the Conservatives are put out permanently......UK cannot survive another conservative PM.

They should go then. If they can't respect the party leadership they should go.

Good riddance, time to become an electable party again.

I can hear the smallest violin in the world starting up

Perhaps they need to go.
