'don't Vote For Mps Mentioned In The Jewish Chronicle' …

… said Jeremy Corbyn’s personal secretary back in 2010. Nicolette Peterson urged voters to compile a list of pro-Israeli Labour MPs ahead of the 2010 general election — so they could back other candidates.

Anti-Semitism is clearly not a new problem within Labour ranks. Does anyone really believe Corbyn will ever address it? I think not - but then I never did.

^ please tell me you arent surprised ?...

[naomi24]

gulliver, do you think Labour's on-going anti-Semitic agenda is a good thing?

[dannyk13]

TRG, no not surprised, just waiting for one reasoned comment.(some hopes)

"....Nicolette Peterson urged voters to compile a list of pro-Israeli Labour MPs" - that'd be a short list!

During the course of this on-going row we’ve been hearing that anti-Semitism doesn’t really exist within the Labour Party – it is simply opposed to Zionism. This, however, proves otherwise. Telling people not to vote for Jews is quite plainly anti-Semitic.

In 2010 the Gaza conflict was fresh in the minds of people like her. 1400 Palestinians were massacred, many of them civilians. The reaction of the British Government was muted. Friends of Israel in the main parties were successful in stiffling any condemnation of the Israeli army.
Of course lobbying against supporters of the Israeli action in Gaza is not anti semitic. Many Jewish people condemned the then Israeli Government for the Gaza massacres.

was thatafter they lobbed some rockets at Israel Gromit? When will they ever learn?

[dannyk13]

Gulliver, this is pertinent to the accusations of anti -semitism in the Labour Party today.Do try and keep up.

[gulliver1]

Danny you are slowly getting like a certain female poster on A/B ., you will get there eventually , just keep practicing

[naomi24]

Gulliver, this news was published yesterday. Do keep up.

Gromit, //Friends of Israel in the main parties were successful in stiffling any condemnation of the Israeli army. Of course lobbying against supporters of the Israeli action in Gaza is not anti semitic.//

I don’t see a call for a rejection of any non-Jewish ‘Friends of Israel’ and they do exist within the Labour Party. This is aimed specifically at Jews and therefore there is no excuse. It is anti-Semitic.

Gulliver, Another inane comment.

Spot the labour supporters on here!

To answer the OP, no COB will never address the problem, how can he as he is a big part of the problem?

[gulliver1]

Naomi,
// ... urged Labour supporters to support other parties if the Labour candidate was a “friend of Israel.” //

There was no mention of Jewish supporters, she specified just Friends of Israel.
