The Rochdale Seven – guilty!
Date published: 20 September 2009
All seven of the ‘Rochdale Seven’ local Labour party members have been found guilty by the Labour discipline panel. Five have been expelled and two have been suspended.
It is understood that Councillor Robin Parker has, as a result of what he sees as a miscarriage of justice, resigned from the party.
Councillor Parker has called a press conference, at which the seven will be present – our reporter is on his way there.
