Frontbenchers say Labour leader should let issue drop as it risks detracting from party’s policies on tackling cost of living crisis
Keir Starmer is being urged to clarify his approach to Labour frontbenchers attending trade union picket lines, as leftwing campaigners press the party’s MPs to support striking workers.
Starmer’s allies say he will decide when he returns from his holiday on 15 August whether to take disciplinary action against Lisa Nandy, the shadow levelling up secretary, who was pictured chatting with striking CWU workers in her Wigan constituency on Monday.
