The biblical adage that ‘if a house be divided against itself,
that house cannot stand’ remains sound theological advice. It is
also essential counsel for any political party in Britain that
aspires to win elections. Though both major parties have been
subject to internal conflict over the years, the Labour Party has
been more given to damaging splits. The divide exposed by the
Corbyn insurgency is only the most recent example in a century of
destructive infighting. Indeed, it has often seemed as if Labour is
more adept at fighting itself than defeating the Tory party. This
book examines the history of Labour’s civil wars and the
underlying causes of the party’s schisms, from the first split of
1931, engineered by Ramsay MacDonald, to the ongoing battle for the
future between the incumbent Labour leader, Keir Starmer, and those
who fundamentally altered the party’s course under his
predecessor, Jeremy Corbyn.
