Greg Marshall blocked from standing in Broxtowe despite backing from eight unions and various Labour factions
Keir Starmer has been urged to intervene in the selection process for a Labour target “red wall” seat, after a leading candidate who had the support of eight trade unions was blocked from standing.
Greg Marshall, a Broxtowe borough councillor for Beeston West in Nottinghamshire, who previously stood as a candidate for Broxtowe in 2017 and 2019, was barred from contesting the seat on Monday, prompting the entire executive committee of Broxtowe constituency Labour party (CLP) to resign.
