Re: "Stop this now"

Yeah she quit on 26th June. Notice she didn't complain about the cleaners and other office workers going into her office though.

This was posted on the Red Labour FB page

Nonsense of the day: The Mail on Sunday are running an article claiming that Jeremy Corbyn is involved in a new 'slave labour' scandal. It goes without saying, but the criteria required for all suppliers of Jeremy Corbyn and Momentum merchandise is to be fair trade & ethical, from the production of shirt to the printing process.

The T-shirts in questions are the superhero Jeremy t-shirts, designed and made by the amazing Angry Dan via a crowdfunding campaign in 2015. These t-shirts are printed in the UK. So the Daily Mail has shipped out a photographer to Bangladesh with some t-shirts from the UK and asked some locals to pose to use within their article. We just hope these people were fairly remunerated.

Regardless, these allegations have been taken seriously - and Momentum are investigating if one of its suppliers may have been misled by a third party supplier in relation to its labour practices.

But this is not the first time the Daily Mail has been caught out with this lie. Just last year they printed the same smear against Jeremy, before being forced to run a retraction on page.86 (in size 6 font). In 2014, they ran the smear on the 'this is what a feminist looks like' t-shirts, again getting caught in their lie: (http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/…/feminist-t-shirt-mail-on-…)

This time, they've been caught before the papers even hit the shelves.

Here are some better things they could have written about:

+ Jeremy launched his campaign to 2000 fans in Salford today. A sold out theatre with only 24 hours notice.

+ Jeremy Corbyn cemented his lead in the polls to 55% approval (Owen Smith is trailing at 22%)

+ The ICO have launched a formal investigation into right wing members of the party over allegations of stealing data and breaches of the data protection act
