[General] peddling

[tkacka15]

" If my memory doesn't fail me, Polly Toynbee supported the Blairites peddling the fear of the Labour's unelectability under the Corbyn's leadership." [From the Guardian readers' forum.]

Who is peddling the fear in the above context? Is it Polly Toynbee or the Blairites?

Thank you.

It would have been clearer if the writer had used an apostrophe (although there is a way of parsing the sentence that makes an apostrophe unnecessary - the two possible parsings are left as an exercise for the reader ;-))
