Democracy in the Labour party is now dead. Keir Starmer's leadership has seen new rules invented and applied retrospectively and constituency parties de facto suspended, their elected officers removed and replaced by reliable rightwingers.

Abstract:

Excerpt:

Starmer promised unity, knowing all along he would declare war on the left. Some were taken in by his 10 pledges promising to continue Labour's "radical work" and to keep Labour’s commitments to common ownership. As his weasel words on nationalising the big six energy firms revealed, he has reneged on these promises already. He embraced Corbyn in the 2019 election before putting a knife in his back at the first opportunity.
