was kind of relying on this quite technocratic defence of, "it's a matter for labour's national executive committeest of candidates on tuesday, that's a process i've got nothing to do with," keir starmer was sort of saying, actually, the idea that keir starmer could have sent a big political signal that trumped that technocratic process, that theory was true because we've got the big political signal today. and, actually, we can hear keir starmer delivering that signal, because we've now got the little bit of tape where he actually said all of this. diane abbott was elected in 1987, the first black woman mp. she's been a trailblazer. she has carved a path for other people to come into politics and public life. the whip has obviously been restored to her now and she is free to go forward as a labour candidate. and, yeah, exactly that point, adam, that you were making just before we heard that extract there. of course, it's a political organisation, a political party, to make a statement obvious, and if the figurehead says something that matters, but also a national executive committee of a party, of
