Why should I, a diasporist Jewish anti-Zionist, who has always fought antisemitism, have to take notice of a Christian called Christian, who used to be anti-immigrant Tory MP, claiming that anti-Zionism is antisemitism. I am anti-Zionist because I am anti-racist.
“Let’s call it out for what is is: anti-Zionism is antisemitism”.

5 years ago today thousands of us heard the news that
@jeremycorbyn
had become Labour leader as we assembled for a “Refugees Welcome”. Corbyn rushed down to speak to that march. No longer Labour’s leader he still speaks up for refugees.

What do you call people who cannot accept diversity in Jewish life but stereotype the Jewish community as having just one view? Some people might call them antisemites. I call them "Tom Watson".

Sickening and gratuitous attempt by David Lammy to give Corbyn a kicking by apologising for nominating him for the leadership ballot. Why apologise for helping someone bring 100s of 1,000s of new members to the LP, win back millions of voters lost by Blair+give them hope?
MP
@DavidLammy
has apologised for nominating Jeremy Corbyn as Labour leader in 2015.

This report acknowledges some truths, but nowhere does it mention that a significant number of local people who campaigned with+for Jeremy were Jewish. The line about people being bussed/tubed in amused me. They kept coming from all over, as volunteers, at their own expense. 1/3

Mark VE Day as an *internationalist* triumph over Nazism, but also mark 8 May 1943 when the Warsaw Ghetto fighters, surrounded in their last bunker, committed mass suicide by ingesting poison to control the manner of their death rather than let the Nazis do so. Fight Fascism!

Rabbi Sacks 2011 "David Cameron is right to say multiculturalism has failed. 2013 "multiculturalism has had its day." 2017 High praise for Douglas Murray's attack on "uncontrolled immigration" +"cultural suicide". How dare he compare Corbyn with Enoch Powell?

So,
@BeckettUnite
who has a strong record of antiracism apologised for his tweet within 30 mins. Leaders of the party that suspended him have not apologised to Black MPs 13 months after vile racism against them by LP officers was exposed in the leaked report. Forde Report now!

What price democracy in the Labour Party? Voting against Corbyn's right to natural justice, and voting to continue expelling socialists for supporting groups that have been retrospectively proscribed.Bad day for democracy, great day for authoritarianism.

Blimey, from The Times to Jonathan Freedland the establishment are promoting Jess Phillips for Labour leader, whose sisterhood and anti-racist solidarity was amply demonstrated when she told Diane Abbott to "fuck off".

Margaret Hodge told JLM conf today that agreeing to IHRA in full will not be enough + she will fight JC until he is no longer leader. One more reason for Labour to defend their code, apart from the fact that only 6/31 IHRA countries have fully endorsed it.

So last Labour NEC elections 293,000 members voted with 214 votes declared invalid. This time round 135,000 voters but more than 6,000 votes declared invalid. What the actual fuck?

Observer leads with
@Keir_Starmer
demanding that PM delivers on promise of all children back at school, no ifs, no buts etc. I'm a retired primary school teacher who taught for 23 years in inner London, (NUT rep for most of those) + I know the unions are right to be worried.
