Content of article doesn't quite live up to headline though.Purge? Corbyn’s Momentum group to exclude socialists
https://www.rt.com/uk/325090-momentum-purge-far-left/
Labour Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn’s Momentum group and senior MPs are trying to block the influence of leftist groups, such as the Socialist Party of England & Wales, citing fears of entryist hijacking.
A central part of the effort will involve drawing up of a new code of conduct that will block socialists and communists from being elected to leadership roles and attending debates.
The move is partially driven by fears that leftist organizations could discredit the movement, which was set up to continue the spirit and energy developed during Corbyn’s leadership election campaign.
Many grassroots activists and far-left groups have called for the deselection of unpopular Labour MPs, including those who voted for bombing Syria last Wednesday.
I view RT and Al-Jazeera more often than Sky News or BBC 24. They aren't perfect, and they do have obvious bias in some subjects, but they are a damn sight better than our homegrown news sources these days.
