Following his attack on another London branch, Brent, Arthur Scargill had derecognised Vauxhall and effectively expelled all its members. Ian Driver, SLP candidate for Vauxhall, is still formally recognised by the SLP leadership. Nevertheless he continues to defend the Vauxhall branch against the witch hunt and has produced this open letter to SLP members asking for their support

Ian Driver’s Vauxhall constituency members have been arbitrarily expelled. Stan Keable’s Brent East branch has simply been ignored by the NEC. Arthur Scargill announced in the Morning Star that Stan was “not a member”. SLP branches have been informed in a recent circular that “there is no Socialist Labour candidate standing in Brent East”. Both London branches are fighting vigorous election campaigns.
