The Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC) national chairperson, Dave Nellist, a former Labour backbench colleague of Jeremy Corbyn in the 1980s, was interviewed on Radio Four’s The World Tonight programme about the repercussions of the vote by 66 Labour MPs to support airstrikes in Syria.

Dave responded to the charge that pro-war MPs have been ‘bullied’ for their position by opposing all personal abuse but making the clear case for the right to deselect Labour MPs, and the need for other far-reaching changes in the Labour Party, for it to carry out Jeremy Corbyn’s anti-war and anti-austerity policies.
