We respect @jeremycorbyn as the democratically-elected leader of @uklabour. But if he asked us to stop the campaign, we would NOT. Sorry.
We have had to wait 18 months for our #OpenSelection motion to be debated at #LabourConference and will not pull out now.

Our campaign is for Labour members to have a democratic vote on the BEST Labour candidate for their seat. Every election.
It's not about a 'purge' - it's about a principle.
Hope that puts your minds at ease, @guardian & @angelasmithmp! 😌
