Shadow chancellor John McDonnell has rejected ideas that MPs vital of Jeremy Corbyn are being driven out of the party.
It follows claims via Labour MP Chuka Umunna that centre-left MPs are being run out the birthday party, as he advised Mr Corbyn to “call off the canines”.
Mr McDonnell branded the feedback “grossly offensive”, saying “our party contributors don’t seem to be canines”.
A Few Labour MPs misplaced no-confidence votes through native birthday celebration members this week.

It comes as Mr McDonnell starts a speaking excursion of the united kingdom to highlight Conservative spending cuts.
He launched the “highway to rebuilding the financial system tour” in Broxtowe, the Nottinghamshire constituency of Conservative MP Anna Soubry, on Saturday.
Earlier this week, former Top Minister Tony Blair mentioned he used to be “undecided it is possible” for Labour “moderates” to take the party again from Mr Corbyn and the left – and hinted at the advent of a brand new “centre floor” celebration.
Other Labour MPs who have lost local trust votes include Frank Field, who surrender the parliamentary celebration closing week – citing the managing of the anti-Semitism row and bullying in local constituency parties – and Kate Hoey.
Graham Stringer gained a trust vote in his constituency.
These ballots had been organised via activists offended at Mr Box, Ms Hoey and Mr Stringer’s determination to again the federal government in Brexit votes, which they are saying robbed Labour of the chance of forcing a normal election it could have gained.
