This is a hilarious consequence of one of the BBC’s talking heads pushing the false narrative about the recent European elections:
Alastair Campbell was today expelled from Labour after he admitted he had not voted for the party for first time in his life, in disgust at the party’s stance on Europe. Tony Blair’s former spin doctor said he had backed Liberal Democrats at the European elections last Thursday because he wants to stop Brexit.
Hitting back at Corbyn and his leadership he said: ‘To all the Labour staff, MPs, peers and councillors who told me they were not voting Labour fear not; as I believe in loyalty to the tribe, your secrets are safe with me’.
The Labour leadership threw him out of the party over his vote – but Mr Campbell will appeal saying Jeremy Corbyn was never expelled despite spending years voting against Labour in Parliament from the backbenches.
He tweeted: ‘Sad and disappointed to receive email expelling me from @UKLabour – particularly on a day leadership finally seems to be moving to the right place on Brexit, not least thanks to tactical voting by party members, including MPs, councillors and peers who back a people’s vote.
So much for the idea that Remain actually won, or that a vote for Change UK is a vote for Labour.
