The people of Sunderland just voted for Labour councillors based on Graeme Miller’s record as council leader. Now
@UKLabour
have just barred him.
The new group leaders have been appointed by unelected Labour operatives from London. This is an insult to the people of Sunderland.…

Typical labour (I refuse to use the L as that was when they were Left and Red). If they were unelected, they have no credibility. Red Tories have no rights to interfere but 'given today's defection' we know their game.

Let's all call "time" on the Labour Party.
It has revealed what it is.
It now must be fought.
The democratic left must unite.
It's time.
