See there you go annoying Forde again by being selective in what you pick from the report to weaponize what you perceive to be another side. Which was precisely what he was talking about in his recent quotes. His evidence for factionalism still existing in the Labour Party was people doing exactly what you've just done.
Not what we were talking about wasn't. What we were talking about was recent quotes by Forde on the current situation at Labour which he knows about as much as you and I on
I think there is another reason too. Labour fully expect the Tories to attack Starmer especially in the direction of his time as DPP, as is the RW narrative re Saville etc
Now, it's a case of getting their retaliation in first and Tory MPs are faux outraged, They'd be possibly seen as a bit hypocritical if they then produced said attack ads against Starmer
It's a warning shot across their bows that Labour are perfectly willing to do what General Krulak wouldn't
My personal opinion: They shouldn't have done it (Just you know because it seems to matter to someone)
Mirror what exactly? The last time Labour won Norfolk South West was in 1959. In 2019 the percentages were 69% Tory / 18% Labour or 35.5K vs 9.3K
Liz Truss' seat has never once featured in the seats the Tories might lose list, If Truss lost that seat the number of Tory MPs would be in single digits
Despite it all being on Labour's website and the comprehensive links I provided to them up thread, you apparently are none the wiser. Maybe its because you didn't read them
Repeating bollocks is bollocks to the power of bollocks
Shit, you're right, they also forgot to mention Bertie Ahern, David Trimble, George Mitchell, Bill Clinton, Reg Empey, John Holmes, Lord Murphy, Mark Durkan, Lord Hulme or Seamus Mallon too.
Or, alternatively, it wasn't a history lesson, it was about a commitment to the future. As for airbrushing... she literally wasn't in the film clips because when the agreement was signed, her work had already been done behind the scenes.
By adding the very next sentence, like I did, he's talking about how various factions are taking bits of his report out of context to score points. Maybe you should listen to him
What on earth does that mean? Is the Labour Party meant to be anarcho-syndicalist?
From the Labour website Quite clearly it is taking time as these things inevitably do but as for not engaging, that is quite clearly nonsense
Wrong.

From the report itself (available in Guardian link with more)
It was absolutely about the Party under Corbyn's leadership, that was it's remit
Probe finally managed to source me Volume 4 of the Wizzz! series to complete the set
Compilation series tend to tail off in quality but as their intended brush is so broad, that isn't the case here.
I think it's right to attack the Tories on Law and Order, the one metric, they always come out on top in, especially as their record is so poor.
I think it's wrong to focus on Sunak, he's not been in the job that long and can easily blame everything on his predecessors. Much better to attack the generic Tory record than bring Sunak into it.
This is hilarious nonsensical hyperbole
The Forde Report was about the Labour Party as lead by the previous incumbent of the leadership office
(Could have gone in a number of topics)
Douglas Ross, leader of the Scottish Tories, has effectively told Scottish Tories to tactically vote for the party best placed to defeat the SNP and protect the Union, in most non-Tory seats, that is Labour.
Let that sink in. The leader of the Scottish Tories is telling his voters to vote Labour in a lot of seats in Scotland. Wow. CCO not happy
Labour in Scotland appear to be being gifted the implosion of both the Tories and the SNP, north of the border
Anyhow... currently on. All the hits on two CDs. Nothing you'll never have heard of but all in the one place
Oddest thing about it, is that after all the usual Smooth FM fodder, it ends on 1969 by the Stooges
