Are we trying to replace the despicable Tories or are we just "Big Money Team Red" serving the interests of the few not the MANY?

How is this fundementaly different from Martin Bell? We (Labour but also LibDem) withdrew our candidates, giving the independent "man in white" a clear shot. Local branches in the Tory heartlands face this choice at every council election and there should be some flexibility in supporting (and standing for) a campaign the party supports.

Labour is a progressive party and members shouldn't be thrown out for being progressive.

It's outrageous that these three Labour Party members have been treated in such a despicable way when all they were trying to do was save our NHS from the greedy claws of the Tory Party.

One of the more sensible approaches of the GE17, and good local support for the approach - Progressive politics for the right reason. Getting a bit fed up of Labour and this sort of shenannigan....

Stop self destructing! For gods sake you should be 20 points ahead in the polls against this government. You keep missing open goals, you'll keep losing. I'm getting sick of it. Ross.

We are supposed to be an opposition party. We should be particularly opposed to a man who has taken every effort possible so far to destabilize the NHS and pave the way for its privatisation. Party members working towards his removal should not be punished for working in the best interests of the NHS.

Re-instate these members -- they were acting for the good of the Labour party and the unrepresented people in our Tory dominated area of Surrey.

In our area we can only defeat Jeremy Hunt if Labour, Lib Dem and Greens join together.

We hear so much from Labour about kicking out the Tories. This is to support our NHS.
