Some Labour sources claim Karie Murphy 'overreached herself' and did things Jeremy Corbyn did not like.

"Karie will drive this crucial work from HQ, as she did during the last election."

Mr Fisher's unhappiness with the functioning of Mr Corbyn's office, overseen by Ms Murphy, was key to his departure according to some Labour sources.Some Labour sources claim that Ms Murphy"overreached herself" and did things Mr Corbyn did not like - something that Labour would not comment on this morning.

A source familiar with the Labour leader's office said of the motivation for Ms Murphy's move:"The Fisher stuff is massive. Think it is a key thing. He is like family to Jeremy Corbyn." One Labour source more sympathetic to Ms Murphy said:"Karie has wanted a move to HQ for a while to be honest.Mr Fisher alleged"class war" has gripped the upper echelons of the party - a dig at Seumas Milne, Corbyn's senior aide, who was educated at Winchester College and Oxford University.

However he did not publicly blame Ms Murphy for tensions in a memo reported by the Sunday Times last month.
