'Labour have thrown me under the bus', suspended councillor says as WhatsApp crisis deepens
A councillor has claimed he has been 'thrown under the bus' by the Labour Party after he was suspended over his membership of the Trigger Me Timbers WhatsApp group. Vincent Ricci claims he raised concerns with party chiefs about the group more than two years ago. Last weekend Andrew Gwynne, MP for Gorton and Denton, was sacked as a health minister after allegedly posting offensive remarks in the chat. Mr Gwynne later apologised for his 'badly misjudged comments'. Coun Ricci is one of 12 councillors from Tameside and Stockport suspended by Labour amid an investigation into the WhatsApp group. READ MORE: 'Somebody is racking up fines with my number plate and I know exactly who it is' READ MORE: Heartbroken parents of toddler Genevieve Meehan killed at nursery 'still searching for answers' Burnley MP Oliver Ryan, a former Tameisde councillor, has also been suspended. Coun Ricci told BBC Northwest Tonight: "I'm so annoyed and frustrated at the Labour Party because it won't listen to me. "I've told it I've got no input whatsoever and its response is 'well that's okay then, you'll be completely exonerated', which I will be, 100 per cent. I feel I've been treated absolutely disgracefully.... 49 years' service. What do they want us to do, not take it to Labour Party headquarters? Not speak to anybody? Not out them and let it all carry on? "It's disgraceful. I haven't thrown the Labour Party under the bus, they've thrown me under the bus." Coun Ricci, now sitting as an independent, said after he raised concerns he was removed from the group. He added: "I was taken off it because we'd spoken about it, that's my belief." After the scandal broke, Coun Ricci said he had received abusive messages, adding: "People out there are tarnishing me with the same brush. I don't want a part of it." A Labour Party spokesperson told the BBC: "As soon as this group was brought to our attention a thorough investigation was launched and swift action will always be taken where individuals have breached the high standards expected of Labour Party members." The following councillors have been suspended from the Labour Party, the Local Democracy Reporting Service/Manchester Evening News understands: Councillor Claire Reid, Tameside Councillor Jack Naylor, Tameside Councillor George Newton, Tameside Councillor Vincent Ricci, Tameside Councillor Charlotte Martin, Tameside Councillor Allison Gwynne, Tameside Councillor George Jones, Tameside Councillor Brenda Warrington, Tameside Councillor Denise Ward, Tameside Councillor David Sedgwick, Stockport Councillor Holly McCormack, Stockport Councillor Ged Cooney, Tameside
