Is Keir Starmer 'purging' left-wing of Labour Party? | LBC

[@iainraymond8310]

A Labour Party without Socialists and Socialist policies is just another Tory Party.

The reality in this country is that you can either placate the rich or you can sit on the opposition benches grumbling about how you've been smeared in the press.
