  • The level of support for the Canary is very minimal and consequently it's not right to argue that they hold significant influence over anything the party does, nor to take them as representative of the left more widely.

    If it was Momentum coming out in support of Chris Williamson then fair enough, but I think @ReekBlefs needs to get over their obsession with these marginal outfits. Go to your local CLP and i can guarantee members who define themselves as being on the left will be (albeit potentially reluctantly) putting in groundwork 'to get Labour elected'

  • Fair enough (TBH i have no idea how popular the canary is). Is anyone saying it is representative of the whole of the left though, or that it has significant influence - the original post just seemed to be saying it was continuing with factional fighting, and that was unhelpful. Is that not true?
