Labour members in North East Beds have thrown their weight behind their embattled party leader Ed Miliband.
The constituency party has written to the party’s General Secretary giving Ed their strong support.
A resolution, passed unanimously, ‘affirms its wholehearted support for our leader, Ed Miliband, and condemns those members of the Parliamentary Labour Party whose recent statements to the media are undermining Party moral.”
Members sent their best wishes to Ed, telling him to ‘be strong and take the fight to our opponents’.
Mike Kalaher, Constituency Chair, said: “I have been appalled at the behaviour of a small minority of Labour MPs whose recent statements not only undermine Party morale but also risk assisting our opponents and damaging our electoral prospects.
“As a CLP we simply wished to express our support for Ed Miliband as our leader and to encourage him to stand firm.”
