A QC representing the five is accusing the party’s national executive committee (NEC) of unlawfully imposing a membership “freeze date” that bars them and many others from the high-profile contest between Jeremy Corbyn and Owen Smith.

The former Labour frontbencher was accused by Mr Corbyn of having “walked away” when the party should be rallying its support and opposing the Conservatives.
“I think as an opposition we’ve done very well”.
This could address our infrastructure needs, for more housing, better rail links, and world class digital infrastructure, and provide quality public services for all, including the health and education services the people of Britain deserve. He insisted Labour can win a general election under his leadership. And Ukip, seizing on justifiable disaffection, act like charlatans by stoking up division and promising working class people that all of society’s Tory-made ills will be eradicated if we just stopped immigration into the United Kingdom, when racism and hate crime is rising across Essex.
Under revised rules for the contest between Corbyn and Owen Smith, introduced by Labour’s national executive committee last month, full members can not vote unless they joined in January or before.
But Mr Smith, 46, has strong support among Labour MPs, who argue that Mr Corbyn – a veteran anti-war and anti-nuclear campaigner who has never held high office – can not beat Prime Minister Theresa May’s governing centre-right Conservatives at the next election.
Mr Corbyn said his pledges were created to ensure that “no-one – and no one part of the country – should be left behind”.
“We could all be living richer lives in a sustainable, more prosperous and more caring society”.
His rival and incumbent Jeremy Corbyn said: “We did defeat the Tories in the May elections”.
‘I tried to speak to him in March and he was really rude, and I asked him why he blocked shared parenting, and he didn’t want to speak about it. I think we have moved on from that style of politics.
“I went to see you, Jeremy, and you know I came to see you not to say ‘can I resign?’ but to say ‘how can we get out of this problem?'”
“I believe that party members will back him again and I trust that all Labour MPs will then respect the wishes of the membership and work to support Jeremy in making the case for a Labour government pursuing socialist policies”. “I don’t recall that”.

“I want us to put a party together that does take it to the Tories”. How on earth are we going to become a strong modern economy if we cut science funding?
