Thank you too Ammi.
It is like a massive act of betrayal that's not just felt by me, however a growing number of other members and even MPs.

We worked hard and endlessly, not just through the days but planning activities at nights as to the canvassing the next days onwards.
When what you've said as the message given on doorsteps is then discarded once power was won.
Then that's a real hard blow.
Myself I have my own career and will be able to live without politics.
However I also am looking at the Labour members who have been members for many decades.
Pensioners who came out in the election to deliver leaflets and help the cause as they saw it then.
Who now also feel severely let down.
The last meeting I was at, the number of heads shaking in disbelief were incredible.
So made my decision, not easy, because I don't break loyalty to people or causes easily.
However this running up the backside of Farage and Reform by Labour now, was way too much to try to accept along with other policies done which were unexpected too.
