Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

Brexit is a single issue party so when we have Brexit they will likely go and the support go back to the Tory/Labour parties. It's up to those two groups of children to play nice else that support may not return.

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

Not really strange. It simply shows that Labour is doing the absolute minimum in an effort to have people believe that it is doing something about anti-Semitism.

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

And the Brexit party are even bigger according to those results. Joining the Brexit party also has the advantage of it being the recipient of a lot of natural working class Labour votes, so they’ll be in good company. ;)

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

No one can join the Brexit Party (become a member with a vote on policies or elect/select officers or MPs/MEPs), they can only register to be "supporters".

Different structure from other British political parties.

Another one bites the dust.

So, suspended if you do that but expelled if you admit to voting for another party. The Labour Party have had plenty of time to improve their governance but have failed to do so.

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

Not the first time he's said this crap either or been caught doing it, iirc he's already been suspended for this

Didn't take long for that victory to turn sour.

Top Labour figures 'interfered' in anti-Semitism disputes.

Watch as nothing happens. It's depressing. Unless Panorama have something so impossible to dismiss and ignore then they'll just attack the BBC and blame everyone else.

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

They just seem to pay lip service to it all.:rolleyes:

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

They’ll do that anyway. Labour’s inaction here is beyond parody. I hope Ed Miliband is feeling suitably chastised; it was his membership rule changes that allowed the hard-left entryist nutcases into the party. They’re the ones who elected Corbyn, they’re the ones attempting to deselect moderate centre left sitting MPs in favour of Momentum fanatics and they’re the ones that think the world is subject to a massive Zionist conspiracy for which all Jews are supposedly somehow culpable.

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

Yeah, I know but I would have at least liked them to be made to squirm a bit harder. For it to at least cause some conflict within themselves. The outright anti-semites like Williamson will never, ever, change but I think there is another group who might at least a pause.

I think the documentary nailed why this does happen - they think they're 'anti-racists' so cannot be racist. As if racist is a binary thing which you either are or are not. :rolleyes:

I don't think they had any smoking-gun unfourtly. The testimony from former staffers were damning but Corbyn's outriders have already decided everyone is lying so it won't convince them. Unless there is a video of one of the senior people outright saying they hate Jews then nothing will ever be proof enough.

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

What I don't get is why after all this, no one seems to be challenging Corbyn or talking about challenging Corbyn. They risk being sidelined by the resurgent centre parties at the next GE if they do not address this and other issues.

There is even a chance of Corbyn himself being ousted from his Islington seat :)

Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
 

Because the membership is fully behind him.
