Look at the dates, they fit, and there was a three month leadership election preceding that 4th April date. The point was to hook a section of LEXITERS and pull them into the REMAIN camp. You don't have to win everyone, just enough to swing the result. This is what I highlighted in this post.
Anyway, there has been a data-drop of information about the Labour Party, 1998-2020 I understand. So this thread is really a reference pointing to it, to see if there is any logical reason to change the stated opinion above.rachel wrote: ↑Mon Aug 22, 2022 4:56 pm I highlight this because it was the beginning of my awakening. All the Leftwing talking heads being pro-EU, vote STAY, then in lockstep, they all unilaterally said, "actually, maybe we should leave the EU in a LEXIT".... LEFT-EXIT ... the point, to hook the leftwing EXITERS and pull them into the fold with their pretend-leave-narrative. They had this view for maybe a month or two, then one-by-one picked apart their own argument for LEXIT and were back where they started, REMAIN. The only hold out was Paul Mason, and right on cue together with Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn a month before the vote...
The Labour Files: The Purge I Al Jazeera Investigations

The leaked documents, obtained by Al Jazeera, reveal how party officials smear and intimidate rivals.
23 SEP 2022
Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit (I-Unit) has obtained the largest leak in British political history, exposing how unelected officials undermined democracy within the Labour Party.
The leaked data comprises 500 gigabytes of documents, emails, video and audio files from the Labour Party dating from 1998 to 2021. The I-Unit will be releasing a series of reports on the leaked files over the coming week.
The data reveals how the party’s bureaucrats, whose nominal function is to serve the interests of the party, attempted to undermine members supportive of Jeremy Corbyn, Labour’s leader from 2015 to 2020.
Until his election as party leader in September 2015, Corbyn was a little-known figure in British politics, active in grassroots activism, from the anti-war movement to the Palestine Solidarity Campaign.
The first unequivocally socialist leader of the party since the 1980s, he rode a wave of popular discontent against the political establishment, standing on a platform of public ownership of key industries, a strengthened welfare state, and an end to the austerity measures imposed by the Conservative government at that time.
The Labour Files show, however, that inside the Labour Party discontent was brewing, leading to internal battles over which side of the party – the left-wing “Corbynites” or the pre-2015 centrists – would have control.
