      such a huge schism that the leader allowed free vote at conference and made the outcome party policy.

      Where 70% of party members sent a message of unilateralism to a multilateralist leader.

      OK. Does the SLab leader have veto over policies voted by members?

      why would she allow a members vote at conference only to veto it?

      back to the point. Is she still a multilateralist? Her website is locked.

      So. A multilateralist leader of a unilateralist party within a multilateralist party which has a unilateralist leader?

      some people are multilateralist, some are unilateralist. We're allowed to have our own opinions in the Labour party.

          don't think anyone cares if you like foo fighters. If you vote green you are, by definition, not a Labour member.

          Then why are you expelling people who voted Green in the past. I was a Lib Dem who changed to the SNP not a problem

          we don't allow people to vote for the leader if they're not Labour supporters.

          Seems that your definition of what is a 'labour supporter' within the membership is another schism.
