Well it appears Lansman’s self promoting autocracy has tonight done more to split the left that Bleugh, the turncoats, the Tories or Establishment and press. We cannot split momentum or the party, we need to remain united and refuse to allow Lansman to make undemocratic decisions on our behalf. We are Momentum, we are Labour, he gets with the programme or gets left behind. There is no room for those who put themselves before the majority. That is not the socialist way.
However we cannot and must not self destruct an organisation that has promoted the socialist cause due to the actions of one or two.
Momentum remains our greatest asset in so many ways. We will not lose it because of this.
We all want a socialist government, hopefully with JC at the head, but this is only achievable if we remain united, loyal to ourselves and the membership, loyal to our children and their future.
So if Mr Lansman cannot accept that Momentum members expect it to be grass roots democracy, then Mr Lansman will need to reconsider his position, not you or me!
So no knee jerk reactions please, consider that we as Labour are under attack by an Establishment that has continually affirmed they are prepared to lie, deceive, threaten, character assassinate, bribe, cajole, and use any dirty trick available to them to ensure that socialism does not take control of Capitalist Britain.
We can only suspect how far they have already gone, pre Corbyn, and how far they will go next.
So stand firm, stand together and continue to defend Labour and Socialism from them.
