Six months ago, Sir Keir Starmer won the Labour leadership election on a promise to maintain Corbyn’s radical policies and unify the party. Since then…
* a leaked secret report has exposed wilful sabotage by racist party officials;
* Corbyn’s sole ally in the shadow cabinet has been sacked;
* Corbyn himself has been suspended from membership of the party;
* The party has been “swamped” by mass resignations;
* Labour’s new general secretary has banned party members even from discussing any of these issues.
Where is Labour going? Should socialists stay? What about the trade union link? Will there be a split? How many members are still active, and where do their sympathies lie? What can we conclude from the results of elections to Labour’s National Executive.
