Triggered archiveA Labour MP is in trouble and the factions are circling. Does she know who her friends are? Do we ever have friends in politics? Or just comrades - in arms one moment and at each other's throats the next. NEC member June Wright takes us through the process as Sally Finch - MP for the fictional seat of Hollingsdeane - faces a contentious vote in Parliament, as well as a local educational dispute that pits local members against each other. Watch as a series of decisions by her local members to seek her deselection are played out. We also meet Jim Marr - Chair of the local branch of Momentum which seeks to depose Sally. However, Jim is also one of the striking members Sally has been supporting. And then there is Safia Peters - A moderate voice in defence of Sally, but against the strike. How far will they all go to get what they really want? This fictional account of an attempt to deselect an MP exposes both the brutal and most human elements of politics. Where ambition and a genuine desire to do good clash. Triggered reminds us that all politics is essentially about human beings making human choices.
