Is Piers Corbyn a member of the Labour Party?

// All Corbyns are committed AntiNazi. Zionists can't cope with anyone supporting rights for Palestine". //

That statement isn't anti semitic. It is probably not true, but the Corbyn brother is allowed to criticise the Zionist state without being anti semitic.

[Gromit]

No he is not a member...

// Piers Corbyn left the Labour Party in 2002. He stood as an independent candidate on housing issues in the Southwark election in 2015. //

[mikey4444]

No !

[ToraToraTora]

well they keep having a go at the 4 by 2s, and Israel to be wiped of the map etc so one could be forgiven for thinking that they are.

[Orderlimit]

not (official) party policy but there seems to be increasing prejudice against Jews within the labour party circus and according to UK law, Piers Corbyn;s comment amounts to at least a racist incident.

Bet plod wont be round his house like they would be for any of us.

What did his brother "tweet" anyway ?

Jeremy Corbyn's Labour revile all forms of bigotry,,,,,

Cries of ‘offence’ are mandatory these days, but he’s got his knickers in a knot. People who support the rights of the Palestinians aren’t automatically Nazis. There is a very legitimate moral issue involved in the Palestine/Israeli situation. In general Labour does support the Palestinian cause - but that said …..

"Bet plod wont be round his house like they would be for any of us."

Of course not, and the brainwashed so-called anti-racist won't be bothered by these allegations of racism unless of course there is an overt skin colour difference.

[naomi24]

I must be missing something here. How is this 'racist'?

[jourdain2]

I'm as puzzled as you are Naomi.

[Orderlimit]

^ i guess because UK law classes anti-Semitism to be a specific form of racism and there is a 'victim' who perceives the corbyn comments as anti-Semitic

[naomi24]

But why does the 'victim' perceive the comments to be anti-Semitic - and is he right – and if he is, why is he right?

[Orderlimit]

No idea Naomi as I don't care about this sort of rubbish but blame the left for this sort of nonsense

[naomi24]

Orderlimit, Now I'm really confused. You said //Piers Corbyn;s comment amounts to at least a racist incident. //

Why?

[Orderlimit]

simply because this Jonathan Arkush guy believes Piers Corbyns comments are belittling the problem of anti-Semitism is anti-Semitic in itself, or that's how i read it. Moreorless anything can fit the definition of racism in the UK nowadays, mad i know !

[naomi24]

Orderlimit, //mad i know ! //

Pleased you said that - even though it contradicts your post at 17:57. ;o)

[Quizproquo]

Orderlimit, what rot! Anti-semitism is entirely separate to racism.

We are all the same. Jews, Arabs, white,black or whatever. Labour was for, and should still be for the common working person. Colour or creed regardless.
Get a grip before we destroy each other.
