It would seem for the Labor party, fear is viewed as an acceptable tactic to use to intimidate any that have an opposing view.
Paul Howes calling those from within there party who speak against current leadership as "gutless pricks" shows their tendency to employ fear when it may suit a purpose they seek to achieve. Howes knows who these people are, perhaps he should listen to them instead of bullying them. He may start making better judgements about the leadership of the party with some input from his commrades.
