Trade union in Bristol withdraws support to three local MPs
Chris Brierley
Politics reporter, BBC Points West
"A slap in the face to Jeremy Corbyn, but also to us, the workers who helped Bristol's Labour MPs get elected".
That's the view from members of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) in the city which has pulled its support from local MPs Thangam Debbonaire, Kerry McCarthy and Karin Smyth.
The group which represents postal workers across the West, says all three have played their part in the "coup" against Mr Corbyn who was democratically elected and and it's big news because the MPs benefited not only from having an army of volunteers but also financially too with the CWU giving them more than £30,000 over the past few years.

This spat locally epitomises the turmoil facing Labour nationally. Bristol is the only red enclave in a sea of blue in the West Country but there are lots of divisions whilst membership of the party under Corbyn has rocketed.
One union member told me some of our MPs are more right-wing that the Tories and that needs to change.
The threat of deselection is something some Labour MPs are acutely aware of.
