Over the last 24 hours, a number of false and defamatory statements have been published about me concerning the launch of Your Party’s membership portal.
The portal was properly launched in accordance with the party’s roadmap.
At no point was members’ data misused or put at risk.
All funds received from members were ringfenced and protected in the appropriate manner.
These baseless attacks on my character are politically-motivated and I intend to hold to account those responsible for making them.
To that end, I have this evening instructed specialist defamation lawyers.
To avoid prejudicing or complicating any future legal process, I will not be making any further comment about this matter at this time.
She’s not the reason it exists at all. When she announced it, it came out discussions had been going on for a while and a process was being formed. The independent group of 5 MPs was already working together.
She left the party, jumped in on something and tried to push herself into leadership.
Adnan already talked about being pushed out, and he’s clearly not happy by that. Is it right, that only 2 MPs in a group of 6 have a say and staffers do but no other MP does. You’re very selectively picking points you want and really twisting them.
She is an effective communicator, and politically principled. I was a fan before this, but her kiboshing a new project because she doesn’t have 50% of power is not a good luck.
Oh, and who is this insider? Someone in Sultana’s camp? Who said fuck off? This is vague.
I have no idea what you meant by the YouTuber comment. It’s not something I follow and politics is all about winning over voters. Public spats never work or help.
Pushed out? This group is 6 MPs and some helpers. If 1 member does there own thing, calls the other 6 sexist, you’d bet the others wouldn’t want to work with them. However, the loss is 1 independent MP. Better than 5. I still expect this to go ahead without her. She’ll probably crawl back to Labour in a year or so.
