I am deeply concerned about this op-ed article in the Guardian. The article shares that Momentum, the campaign group has already been broadening its activities beyond the traditional political realm to social issues such as food banks.

I worry that the traditional socialialist, UK Labour Party, was hijacked by Far-Left fanatics for whom the end justifies the means. The Far Left like the Far Right are not above violence, together with suppression of the truth – policy is not about evidence, it’s about promoting the interests of sponsors and leaders. I always remember trying to explain the concept of ‘radical change’ to a Russian colleague at UNESCO, Paris – he replied, ‘Ah, you mean revolution?’

The Guardian article contains zero evidence and is full of biased opinion.

I have grave misgivings about Momentum and their motivation. Are the leaders of Momentum who are underpinning the Labour Party revolutionaries?

Thoughts?
