After 44 years as a Labour member, I spent 18 months facing explusion. This is what the party got wrong | Neal Lawson
Briefly

During the election, Labour ruthlessly targeted its resources in seats it could win and actively discouraged campaigning elsewhere, signaling to members and voters to back the best-placed progressive.
Labour is run by people who lost control of their party to Corbynism, and now they want to ensure it can never be lost again, through audacity and cynicism.
The Labour party's internal dynamics encourage opponents to self-exclude, which is particularly clear regarding the party's stance on Gaza and the winter fuel allowance.
The system operates in the dark, where less robust figures suffer alone. My situation highlights broader issues about the party's culture and its treatment of members.
