Henry Hill: McCluskey suggests that Unite may support Labour standing in Northern Ireland

It’s a Labour special: Leonard contradicts Corbyn to rule out support for second Scottish referendum; and Jones offers cash boost to firms affected by Brexit.

Starmer chances his arm by challenging McDonnell and McCluskey over Brexit

It’s a bold gambit. The Labour Party may be changing, but the people the Shadow Brexit Secretary is taking on still have claws.

James Frayne: A second referendum? The poll data suggests Greening’s idea would be a total disaster for the Conservatives

The British left are somewhat more open to the idea, but the Conservative Party’s members and voters would not wear the proposal

James Bickerton: Why aren’t the Far Left treated with the same disdain as the Far Right?

There would, quite rightly, be outrage if a senior Conservative figure delivered a speech to a crowd which waved fascist flags.

Nick Faith: We need a Brexit that is open for business. Letting Melrose take over GKN would be a sign we’ll get one.

When open markets are being called into question by the Left, the last thing the economy needs is for a Conservative Government to play the interventionist card.

Labour ‘moderates’ have fled the field, leaving Momentum and Unite to fight over who runs the Opposition

Like the Model T Ford, only somewhat less innovative, the Labour Party is now offering any kind of Left you want, as long as it’s Hard.

His reforms will cripple his MPs and are a posthumous triumph for Tony Benn’s belief in extra-Parliamentary action.

Also: Cameron and Soubry strike out at SNP; McCluskey turns fire on Scottish Labour; Corbyn accused of fixing Welsh by-election selection; and more.

Henry Hill: Grayling and Duncan Smith exchange fire with SNP

Also: Crabb warns constitutional fixation risks paralysing Welsh politics; Scottish Labour splits party on Trident; Scottish education policy under attack; and more.

The welfare revolt was just a taste of Labour splits to come

Inside the party or out, the union barons’ tame MPs will be a plague on any leader who attempts to move the party towards the centre.

Miliband’s legacy: Twenty-one of the welfare rebels were new MPs – and seventeen of those have links to Unite

Recently it seemed that Labour’s loony left might one day die out. Now they have a new generation.

Unite seek to force Labour even further to the left

They tried it in Falkirk, then they tried it with Miliband. What could possibly go wrong the third time?

A letter to Labour

I know you don’t want to hear from your opponents right now, but it would be really lovely if you could grant me a few requests.

Now Labour’s biggest donor backs Lutfur Rahman

Len McCluskey sent a “personal message of support” to a rally in support of the corrupt former Mayor.
