Len Bonkers
Len McCluskey has apparently offered the his expertise as a professional negotiator to help 'broker peace' in the long running saga over Jeremy Corbyn's leadership of the Labour Party
Now I find that a bit rich coming from a union leader who made such a horse's ass of things at Grangemouth where the giant Ineos plant nearly closed down following an ill-judged dispute which Unite lost hands down, after calling a strike in support of a local union rep who was accused of carrying out political work for the Labour Party during his employer's time.
Now Len says that a Blairite PR firm (Portland Communications) is responsible for orchestrating a coup against Jeremy Corbyn without even a scrap of evidence to back up his bonkers claim.
The Mirror reports on the Len's outburst which was made on the BBC's Andrew Marr programme at the weekend.

Len McCluskey told the BBC to mount a probe into Portland Communications as he claimed MPs have been "seduced by sinister forces in play"
The boss of Britain's biggest union has claimed the coup on Jeremy Corbyn is being "orchestrated" by a "Blairite" PR firm.
Len McCluskey told the BBC to mount an investigation into Portland Communications as he claimed MPs have been "seduced by sinister forces in play".
The Unite general secretary was referring to a comment piece by 'left-wing alternative' website The Canary which claimed "it surely can be no coincidence" Portland employees have ties to centrist Labour groups.
