Chris Williamson – 2020 Comments on Rebecca Long-Bailey

Below is the text of the comments made by Chris Williamson, the former Labour MP for Derby North, on Twitter on 25 June 2020.

So RBL [Rebecca Long-Bailey] is sacked by Sir Starmer for sharing Maxine Peake’s interview with the Independent!

The abject failure of ANY MP to join me in condemning the witch-hunt years ago has led directly to this. And it’s only going to get worse.

Pastor Niemöller’s words come to mind.
