Labour leader accused of stoking unnecessary row by firing shadow minister over interviews from picket lines
Keir Starmer has been accused of making a “severe mistake” and stoking an unnecessary row by firing a shadow transport minister over his comments on rail strikes.
The former shadow chancellor John McDonnell told the Labour leader to “come off the fence” and stop alienating voters. He claimed there were unprecedented levels of anger at the lack of solidarity with workers taking industrial action.
