Jezzer must be bored with this one.

Quote:

Mr Field, a Eurosceptic who is among a handful of Labour MPs to back the government in some Brexit votes, says he will remain as a member of the party but will sit as an independent Labour MP, who will not be subject to the parliamentary party's disciplinary procedures.

Just leave and be done with it.

This won't bother Corbyn because it will be an opportunity for another member of Momentum to get a seat at the next election.

I agree jim, but Frank can not have it half and half. He goes back to being a whip or step down and call it a day. As for Momentum they really disgust me they are full of hate.

Former Labour home secretary Lord Blunkett has said the resignation of veteran MP Frank Field must be seen as a "catalyst for seismic change".

Writing in the Daily Telegraph, Lord Blunkett called for a rethink of the "so-called Corbyn project".

Mr Field quit the Labour group at Westminster over the party's handling of anti-Semitism allegations and what he called a "culture of nastiness".

Corbyn with Momentum have taken the Labour party back to the bad old days but this time more vile and twisted.

No doubt Corbyn's gang will say Blunkett is the past and we are the future.

I think she should leave, the vile element in Labour are showing signs they are out of control.

The tail has been wagging the dog since Corbyn took over but who removed the dogs muzzle?

Theresa May has said that "giving in" to calls for a second referendum on the final terms of the UK's withdrawal from the EU would be "a gross betrayal of our democracy".

The Prime Minister dismissed calls from the People's Vote, a cross-party group that includes several high-profile figures and MPs, for a second Brexit vote.

That will not stop them, in fact it could make them step up the pressure even more.
