Jeremy Corbyn is starting talks with shadow cabinet members as part of a reshuffle, a Labour source has said.
The intention is for the new line-up to be announced on Tuesday, although the process could take several days. Mr Corbyn is reportedly considering replacing some shadow ministers who disagree with his policies. BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg said she did not expect a "very dramatic purge" of Mr Corbyn's top team in the next 24 hours. It would be "more a shuffle than lots of moderates being shoved out", she said, although new shadow foreign and defence secretaries are expected to be appointed. The current shadow cabinet is divided on issues including Trident renewal and military intervention in Syria. Shadow foreign secretary Hilary Benn backed air strikes in last month's Commons vote, but Mr Corbyn opposed them. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-35220413 ---- I predict this will pave the way for a splitting of the labour party into 2 parties. It can't possibly be realistic to have a reshuffle so soon after him becoming leader |
