Mandatory reselection like 'sword of Damocles'
Labour MP Stephen Pound has said the threat of mandatory reselection of MPs is like a "sword of damocles" which is doing the party "no good".
He told the World at One that the party is in danger of "losing the plot" by potentially asking MPs to put themselves forward for re-selection before each election.
