A FURTHER two senior constituency Labour party (CLP) officials have been suspended after motions were passed calling for the whip to be restored to Jeremy Corbyn.

The action was taken against Hampstead and Kilburn CLP chairman Pete Firmin and vice-chairwoman Bridget Dunne pending an investigation.

Former Labour leader Mr Corbyn had his membership suspended on October 30 for saying that the extent of anti-semitism in the party “was overstated for political reasons by our opponents.”
