Members of the Labour Party in Hull have apparently decided to go go for an all out selection battle for their MP. It is not likely to happen. Firstly the meetings casting the relevant "trigger ballot" votes sound as if they were inquorate making the process invalid. Secondly, there seems to be an overwhelming likelihood of a General Election being called before Christmas, which would thwart any new selection process.
It does however tell you something about the inward looking mentality of many party members that they think an entirely inward looking approach for the next twelve weeks is better than preparing for fighting a General Election in November or December.
