Sir Keir Starmer is accused of carrying out a 'purge' within the Labour Party by removing left-wing candidates and inserting his own supporters in winnable seats.
Deputy leader Angela Rayner defends Diane Abbott's candidacy, describing her as a 'trailblazer' and questioning the decision to not allow her to stand in the upcoming election.
Sir Keir denies allegations of blocking left-wing candidates, stating he aims for the highest quality candidates and praises Abbott for her accomplishments and perseverance in politics.
Rayner believes Starmer is focused on becoming prime minister and making positive changes for the country, rather than getting entangled in internal party conflicts.
