If you can't see the difference between being caught in the act of fabricating something and somebody agreeing with the premise of a rhetorical question on how it would be wrong to fabricate, then I would suggest your view is tinted by your dislike for one side.

To be a respected member of the board does it require you to make tired jokes about a left wing centralised conspiracy? If so, +1 respect for your efforts today sir. Keep it up and one day you will catch Glassers and Lowhouse.


"then I would suggest your view is tinted by your dislike for one side"

I think I heard a self-awareness klaxon going off somewhere.

I've not made any jokes about left-wing conspiracies, please stop making stuff up. It's hardly just GB and lowhouse taking issue with you anymore is it.

Drive pass there everyday and if traffic is bad on the way home will pull off the A12 and head to the great chip shop on the roundabout.
Chips are always great in there, quite enjoy the pickled eggs too.

Because the Hard Left don't care about getting into power, just having everyone within their party - no matter how small and pointless it becomes - agreeing with each other about how right on they are.


People are desperate for Labour's programme to be put in place.

Their lives depend on it. You are either disconnected from the misery of austerity or completely blind to it if you think this is all about champagne socialists wanting to be right.

Show some respect.

The more leave to join this new group, the louder calls will grow for by-elections, and rightly so. Many activists and the party machine helped get these people to the positions they are in so, if they are so determined about "a new type of politics" they ought to put that to the test and see what their voters think. After all that seems to be what most of them want to do with a 2nd referendum on Brexit.


There is very little constitutional need for them. After all, we elect representatives for our constituencies, not central parties (can't help it if everyone's lazy and does it the other way around - should have gone for some form of PR in 2011 if they wanted that).

There were no by-elections in 1981 due to the SDP split.

In any case, is it reasonable to expect a breakaway group of only around 24 hours standing (without yet any organised support or formulated policies) to instantly fight for their seats against an established party organisation? The calls for that smack to me of simply an effort to remove them from Parliament while still at maximum vulnerability. Not good for democracy and merely retrenches the two party system.

It's not the same and you know it. One's a hypothetical discussion the other is an actual incident of "antisemitism" that could have have had an awful effect on this woman's life if Joan Ryan hadn't been caught on camera making it up.

Please address the latter on its own merits. Everyone seems to be weaseling out of it because they know it's actually clear evidence of the weaponisation I'm talking about. And again I'm saying that genuine incidents also exist but it also brings into question how they are used and to what end. Similarly when Labour now publish the figures of how many incidents have been reported and how they've been handled promptly, the numbers have been questioned by those eager to keep up the campaign.

It's awful agenda-driven politics. But given how Joan Ryan couldn't actually answer the simple question posed about how LFI are working towards a two-state solution as promised, it shows the level we're talking about.

if you cared about austerity you would care about a labour government actually being elected. you would be furious about the ineptitude and extremism that currently makes that impossible. the failure of leadership, the tolerance of anti-semitism, the extremism in foreign policy amongst the leadership stand in the way of ever doing anything about austerity. you would be incensed by this political failure - a failure which will go on propping up the tories. but you're not - so I think that being anti -austerity is actually just a political pose. you clearly don't at any real level care about it.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

It's in the video, Steve. Joan Ryan literally invents an incident of antisemitism and embellishes it before our eyes.

And I have never said that it's "all made up" so don't put words in my mouth. Antisemitism does exist and incidents of antisemitism have taken place. But here we see a key person, the Chairwoman of Labour Friends of Israel showing how eager she is to weaponise antisemitism. A little too eager in this case to the point that she imagines it, even coming out with her own trope about Jews controlling banking.

And on a side note, shows how being pro-Palestinian can be turned into antisemite in minutes.

And on a wider note, why won't/can't anyone address the Lobby evidence? It's like you're living in another world.


It's not just that post from you it's been several where you've downplayed stuff. I will apologise for saying that you've ignored all the anti-semitism

I'm not going top pay much attention to a short video, pushed out without context to make a political point though.

Perhaps Labour should be trying to appeal to more voters then. And not supporting the Tory policy on the biggest issue of the day.

Just because I don't agree with you most of the time doesn't mean I am a Tory. I don't spend my days posting Tory propaganda on here.

This is the issue. If you disagree with Labour then instantly you are a Tory and it's all smears. That's not the case, it's perfectly possible to disagree with them whilst also not agreeing with the Tories.

You are just as selective as anyone else, you just pretend you're not. You also seem to love interjecting on my posts with personal swipes. The kinder type of politics indeed.

It's almost as if people are here to post their own opinions.

One thing I do find difficult to understand is how the same people that suggest there isn't a centralised anti-Corbyn attack group spend their whole day suggesting there is a centralised pro-Corbyn support group.

For the record - I don't think there is a centralised anti-Corbyn attack group and I never suggest this. In fact, I don't think any of us do.
