Catherine McKinnell Quits Shadow Cabinet over Corbyn’s “negative path”
Catherine McKinnell, the Shadow Attorney General, has resigned from the Labour Shadow Cabinet, days after a call for unity from senior figures.
McKinnell wrote to Jeremy Corbyn, the Leader of the Labour Party, saying:
“As events have unfolded over recent weeks, my concerns about the direction and internal conflict within the Labour Party have only grown, and I fear this is taking us down an increasingly negative path”.
McKinnell will be replaced by Karl Turner, the MP for Kingston-upon-Hull East.
