Chuka Cult 🧵

A former Change UK staffer describes a culture of surveillance and loyalty oaths inside the party.

Chuka Cult, part 1 of 4: Former staffer for Change UK describes “creepy and invasive” atmosphere where staff were constantly under surveillance. / [Photo: Chuka Umunna in a dark suit, fingertips pressed together in front of his mouth]
Chuka Cult, part 2 of 4: Former staffer for recently formed The Independant Group Change UK detailed several instances where she was made to feel unsafe and afraid, especially around a particular MP who she was too afraid to name: / “He would lap milk from a bowl, like a cat. Sometimes he would show us execution videos he’d downloaded. We’d be horrified and he would just laugh and laugh like it was some great joke.”
Chuka Cult, part 3 of 4: “He said he wanted us all to get the party logo tattooed on our chests. At first we thought it was a joke but I got an email asking when I was available to get it done. I handed my notice in that day.” / Since quitting, the ex-staffer (who requested anonymity) has received “near daily” emails reminding her that “things might go very wrong” for her if she breached the non-disclosure agreement staffers were made to sign
Chuka Cult, part 4 of 4: They call me “Oathbreaker”. That’s their word for people who fail to live by their code. They always find a way to imply that they’re stalking my family.” / “Once a day we were all made to sing ‘Things Can Only Get Better’ together. If they felt you weren’t being enthusiastic enough they would pull you into a meeting. They would make you feel really, really guilty.”
