Labour Haemorrhages Support As Party Slumps in Polls

from Breitbart Europe, authored by Victoria Friedman

Two local Labour figures have defected to the Brexit Party, as Labour sinks to fourth place in a recent YouGov poll.

West Heywood councillor Alan McCarthy and former Labour councillor and leader of Rochdale council Colin Lambert defected to the Brexit Party this week.

“I have resigned the Labour whip and will be joining the Brexit Party – the only party that is standing up for democracy – and the only party committed to investing in the north and the regions which, for too long, have been ignored by the other political parties.”
