Stockport MP hits out at 'unhealthy' anonymous briefings against Labour left
Newly elected MP Navendu Mishra urges colleagues to ‘get behind’ whoever wins
Labour leadership candidate Rebecca Long-Bailey leaves after the Labour leadership hustings in Nottingham on Saturday
A NEWLY elected Labour MP urged his colleagues today to “get behind” whoever wins the Labour leadership contest, warning that anonymous briefings against Rebecca Long Bailey are “not healthy.”
Navendu Mishra has criticised a series of anonymous claims that a large number of Labour MPs are ready to quit the party if the shadow business secretary emerges triumphant.
One MP who asked not to be named said that between 30 to 50 fellow Labour parliamentarians would walk out if Ms Long Bailey was chosen by members to succeed Jeremy Corbyn.
