UK Labour deputy leader survives bid to oust him over Brexit stance
LONDON/ BRIGHTON, England - The deputy leader of Britain’s Labour Party survived an attempt to oust him over Brexit on Saturday after party chief Jeremy Corbyn moved to defuse a row that threatened to overshadow the party’s bid to show it was ready for power.
But a move by Corbyn ally Jon Lansman, founder of the left-wing grassroots movement Momentum, to propose a motion to abolish the deputy’s post because of disloyalty over Brexit threatened to derail those plans. A Labour source said Corbyn, who backs an election first, had intervened just as the party gathered for the annual conference in the seaside resort of Brighton.
Britain’s decision to back leaving the EU in a 2016 referendum has divided not only the country’s main political parties, but its towns and cities and often families. More than three years on, little is clear on how Brexit will happen.
