Labour MPs have united in a chorus of condemnation of the left-wing Morning Star newspaper after it labelled the imminent fall of Aleppo, Syria’s largest city, a “liberation”.
Desperate messages were emerging from the city as President Bashar al-Assad’s regime wrested back control of more neighbourhoods from rebel forces, with a Syrian general claiming the resistance was in the “final stages”.
The sentiment prompted an instant backlash from Labour MPs led by John Woodcock, one of the fiercest critics of British government inaction over aid to the region.
He made reference to the newspaper’s links to the pro-Jeremy Corbyn campaign group Momentum and the pro-Russia views expressed by Corbyn’s director of communications, Seumas Milne.
