        Tories must be ousted by some method, before feet under table. Your amazing hard work got this far - must not lose this buzz. Fight to oust!

        We're going to win! Tories have broken Good Friday Agreement. It isn't sustainable. Tory authority on security is now officially a fallacy.

        It's always a risk, but we have the momentum now. The sooner the better, whilst we still have the PLP under control.

        Tories need power/want power. very uneasy with political vulnerability, which is why May went for an election. She wanted more power.

        As I would suspected. This is a nonsense. This 2 year period not in the rules I would question its validity and is not applied consistently.

        problem is legally no right to join an unincorporated association so very hard to make a legal challenge under contract law.

        Duncan, its about Justice & fair play to McDonnell he's been on the case of unfair bans - we need a Corbyn supporting NEC now, not later.

        Agreed. Lots of rule breaches all over country. Admin have been appalling in arbitrary and unfair treatment.
