Move by Jon Lansman to become party general secretary would expose faultline on left of party
Len McCluskey once joked that Labour MPs were so paranoid about the closeness of Unite and Momentum, they were worried about “a secret tunnel linking Unite HQ to Jon Lansman’s home”.
However, a battle to be Labour’s new general secretary is set to expose a faultline which has been quietly widening on the left of the party – between Momentum’s desire to see Labour transformed into a member-led movement and trade union interests in keeping tight control on its key offices.
