Rejected 20 signatures

What the petition asks

Rid the Labour party of the remaining Blairites to make it a clear battle between Left and Right wing politics at the next general election
over 200,000 people are in support of Jeremy Corbyn compared to the 170 Right wing Labour back benchers who tried to oust their leader.
Eradicating the right wing MP's from labour will make it a clear battle for No.10 at the next General Election between Left v's Right
