All the nutter conspiracy theorists and revolutionary’s now, through cheap membership, have total control. Up till a few years ago these were just the nutters in the shadows, a bit like having that elderly grandparent who uses terms like big nogs or darkies. Embarrassing but harmless. I don’t think there’s anything Corbyn or others can actually do to regain control without damaging their own power base. The vast majority of Labour MP’s would be joining chuka like a shot if it wasn’t for the “Labour” brand name. Hopefully The Tiggers can establish a brand and get it frowning in time for 2022 like Macron did. Is Noggin a “ Big Nog” or just a regular Nog? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could point out that the Jewish Chronicle isn't what most people would call MSM with some detail. I could point out that nothing you've said in the post is actually a valid contention against the actual point I've repeatedly made by reasserting it. But I don't care. You and CT win. This is super important and matters way more than everything other than Brexit itself, as indicated by the coverage it receives. You repeatedly demanded more evidence before acknowledging there is a problem so all I’m doing is providing it. It is important, and that’s why it isn’t a victory. And please don’t group me together with tubs. On any issue. Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which of course was the entire point of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26809 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 And there it is. The priority is to protect the leader rather than the victims of antisemitism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4970 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 There what is? He's totally right about Freedman the guy has had it in for him since day one, I've mentioned it on here before. I honestly dont understand the world anymore, it's like everyone has totally embraced being super sensitive over fuck all. Why shouldn't Corbyn get to say that an article written about him is full of subliminal nastiness? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26809 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 The point is that his priority is to attack those who bring up their antisemitism problem rather than to address the problem itself. Look at the resolutions that have been passed in Hackney and Sheffield Hallam as well as Jennie Formbie’s reaction to Tom Watson’s plans. They could have put this to bed years ago but instead have continued to bury their heads in the sand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article indeed isn't that bad, I've seen far worse from that journalist. But it was written in February 2016 when every fucking article anyone wrote was a hit piece on the guy, and Labour MPs were in open rebellion against him. This is the outcome of a fucking siege mentality. I mean i agree that it could have been dealt with years ago. That part is fucking true. But that video, for me, does not expose Corbyn as someone who doesn't care. It exposes him as someone who, to my surprise, actually was paying attention to a press who were trying to eviscerate him at every turn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26809 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 And what do you do in that situation? You get ahead of it. You implement the IHRA and take swift strong action against anyone guilty of antisemitism and remove that weapon from the press. It's been an absolute PR disaster for Labour and you really have question Corbyn and Milne's competence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just dont understand the moral outrage at what he has said in that clip. People are condemning him for not getting out ahead of the problem, they're going on as if he said something reprehensible. He didn't. Edited March 2, 2019 by Rayvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26809 Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Again, it's his dismissal of the article as an attack on him and a refusal to admit that there was an issue that needed to be dealt with. That's the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 20164 Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 why do antisemites think Labour is the party for them?
