This is a thread dedicated to identifying corbyn opponents and suspected corbyn opponents and measuring and prioritising their extremism in opposing Corbyn. MPs MEPs and NEC officials are all of interest.
"At a meeting of the parliamentary Labour party on Monday night, Corbyn attempted to face down his critics, calling for an end to “back-biting, public attacks and constant sniping”. But there was little sign he succeeded in quelling the potential revolt. In the increasingly febrile atmosphere, the Barnsley Central MP Dan Jarvis is still being touted as a potential leadership challenger.
Corbyn and his team are ambitious about Momentum, hoping to turn it into a mass movement, mainly of the Labour party but with part of its footprint outside to attract new supporters.
But it has proved controversial. The Labour MP for Barnsley East, Michael Dugher, who Corbyn sacked from his post as shadow culture secretary, called it a “mob”; his office told the Guardian he had not withdrawn the remark."
"Labour’s deputy leader, Tom Watson, described it as a “rabble”, though he has since partially revised that judgment. He said: “When I used the phrase, it was because in the early weeks after they were founded, they seemed very disorganised and often there were different groups making contradictory claims about their purpose. Now that Jon has stamped his authority on the organisation, they seem to have a more consistent programme of activity and a lot of people will reserve judgment on how their programme will play out in the life of the Labour party.”
