An investigation based on the largest leak of documents in British political history. The Labour Files examines thousands of internal documents, emails and social media messages to reveal how senior officials in one of the two parties of government in the UK ran a coup by stealth against the elected leader of the party.

The program will show how officials set about silencing, excluding and expelling its own members in a ruthless campaign to destroy the chances of Jeremy Corbyn becoming Britain’s prime minister. Candidates for key political roles were blocked and constituency groups suspended as the party’s central office sought to control the elected leadership.

Interesting! Mad that Al Jazeera would make this.

Thanks!

Not mad when you know that Al Jazeera used to be a BBC Arabic TV station.

A friend of mine works as an engineer for the BBC. He said that when the Doha, Qatar station changed over from BBC to Al Jazeera over a weekend in 1996, nobody lost their jobs. They just carried on as though nothing had changed...

But still, why don't the BBC run this?

Maybe it's the BBC of 1996, which were much more pro-Labour and pro- some sort of respectability in politics.

That doesn’t mean there wasn’t some sort of hostile Qatari takeover.

Just because the people at the bottom of the pyramid aren’t changing doesn’t mean the ones at the top aren’t.

It would be interesting to know.

If Qatar took over the BBC's TV station without the blessing of the beeb, the worker bees would have been told they were fired, no? Also, My friend said they used the same network and systems infrastructure as the beeb in London, even after the switchover. He was responsible for compressing and archiving which included Al Jazeera for years.

Not sure if that's still the case, as the beeb eventually moved management of all its engineers to an Australian company called "Red Bee Media". One day he was a BBC employee, the next he was a Red Bee.
