Yesterday morn I refused to share a 'Win for Labour' video as I felt it was offensive towards Corbyn and the Left. One person (Labour supporter) suggested I might be 'lying for likes'.

In the evening I shared a 'don't leave, organise' post and several socialists.

... commented, telling me I was wrong, naive etc. etc.

I have chosen to stay and fight (although I appreciate things change every day) but I understand and respect the decision of those who don't. I am, proudly, a @socialistcam supporter BUT I am reflective in my ...2/6
... support. I wish we had done/would do some things differently, I don't agree with every thing my favoured politicians say and I don't lie for political point scoring.

Like others I would be delighted by a break-away socialist party but sadly I feel that is unlikely. 3/6
Given all the above & other tweets there is a real possibility that sooner or later I'll be 'asked' to leave Labour. If it happens, so be it.

Even so, more than ever I believe that we must GET THE TORIES OUT and unless a lot changes voting Labour is our only hope of that. 4/6
Like many, many, others so much that has happened in the party in the last few months, and indeed the last few years ( #LabourLeaks) fills me with anger.

But, and this is a big BUT, the next general election is a long time away. Whatever mess Johnson makes the Tories have...5/6
...a 80 seat majority.

So, as I've said before IN or OUT of Labour lets stay united, let's work together in our communities, off and on-line for equality, for social justice, for peace, for sustainability.

The struggle has only just begun.
