Angela Rayner sacked as Labour Party chair and national campaign co-ordinator

Breaking: Rayner sacked​

Deputy leader made scapegoat for impact of Starmer’s disastrous leadership – when blaming Corbyn doesn’t work, Starmer makes a woman take the fall​


Keir Starmer has sacked Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner as party chair.

The move is clearly designed to scapegoat her for the party’s disastrous performance in this week’s elections, but will fool few – Starmer’s drab leadership and lack of substance is matched only by the anonymity and emptiness of his front bench and his supporters. So much for Starmer’s ‘no excuses’ claim that he’d take responsibility.

Typical Labour right: when things go wrong, blame Corbyn – and when that falls flat, let a woman take the fall.
 
Not a fan of hers but this is ridiculous

who is advising him?
Thought she was great during the election debates in 2019 but she's clearly been muzzled by Starmer and his cronies ever since she became deputy leader. Starmer purging the party of anybody vaguely left wing. Saw it coming a mile off. Did the same thing to RLB and even to Corbyn. Bloke is an absolute snake.
 
There are those on here who claim that "factionalism" - particularly what they label "the left" is destroying the Labour Party and its chances of power.
Some advice:
Just stop and look at what IS actually going on within the Party - especially the "democracy" within the Party.
what you see is like a cancer which cannot be hidden.
The cancer needs to be removed, not the healthy body it is consuming!

When I was told earlier this week that Keir Starmer and Angela Rayner had a bad relationship and the leadership would blame her for bad election results... that source was not kidding.

A poor leader will always make "sacrificial lambs" of others and blame them for their own failures.
