And STILL the Labour party fights amongst itself - this time with disgusting snobbery that would make Emily Thornberry blush http://www.leftfutures.org/2015/02/young-labour-leaders-ridicule-member-for-working-in-a-restaurant/
Some quotes from Jake Johnstone's letter:
"...the sheer level of disgusting behaviour and ‘jobs for mates’ elitist attitude"
"...they felt it appropriate to stand at the top of the stairs and point and laugh at me. Just to reiterate – they pointed and laughed at me"
"They are members of a party that prides itself on being the party of working people."
"...they’re classist snobs who feel it best to intimidate and mock someone who they deem to be beneath them."
"Their sentiments were made extremely clear when a colleague of mine heard one of them say “As if he works in a fucking restaurant” "
"I just hope that in a few years Labour Students will be unrecognisable from the closed shop which exists at the moment; the one which says you have to know people to even get your foot in the door, and join the cliques to get to where you can make decisions."
Can we have a statement from Len McClusky about this please.
Can we have a statement from Chuka Umunna.
Can we have a demonstration organised by the Centre for Labour and Social Studies.
