My column in this week’s New Statesman revolves around Labour’s “Neanderthal tendency”, the “old-right tribalists”, who have rallied around the disgraced ex-MP Phil Woolas, rather than condemn his revolting behaviour and tactics. I see that Tom Harris, a proud and paid-up member of said “tendency”, has tried to “respond” to my column.
The Labour right strikes back
Me versus Tom Harris on Phil Woolas.
