Is Labour 'purging' critical voices?

"Pettiness separates; breadth unites." - Emma Goldman View this email in your browser Today we have the story of a blogger who has been banned from voting in the Labour leadership election because he sent some tweets criticising his local council. This comes as the party faces accusations that it is 'purging' critical voices. The blogger who had intended to vote for Jeremy Corbyn says he is not a member of any rival organisation. Elsewhere, we hear from the organisation Migrant Voices, on the crisis in Calais. They say that rather than strengthening borders and combatting trafficking, the UK and the EU should be providing a legal route to refugees. They believe governments across Europe must share the responsibility for supporting the migrants.  Latest Articles     Critical blogger banned from voting in Labour leadership election     On Aug 20, 2015 05:08 pm Website editor Jason Cobb included in dossier of 'possible entryists' by local party Read more... »       Comment: Higher fences will not solve the Calais migrant crisis   On Aug 21, 2015 08:23 am The UK and the EU should be providing legal routes for refugees Read more... »   Opinion Former videos   A sustainable public transport system   On Aug 05, 2015 04:47 pm Go-Ahead Group's approach to a sustainable public transport network, which is vital to the economic development of the UK.
