Re: Corbyn's kerfuffle
Labour Party Conference schedules a debate on rule changes that are supposed to tackle antisemitism - on a Saturday.
https://order-order.com/2019/09/21/l...mitism-debate/
Thereby ensuring that no observant Jews can take part in the debate, as it’s the Sabbath.

When it's a single core issue, such as Brexit, it's a different matter. With Momentum/Labour it's just about the general tone of differences.

Quote from The Sun:Hard-Left activists have mounted a bid to try to oust Jewish Labour MP Dame Louise Ellman - on the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
She is the third female Jewish Labour MP to have faced a campaign to kick her out after daring to speak out against Jeremy Corbyn’s failure to tackle anti-Semitism.
Corbynistas in a branch in Dame Louise’s Liverpool Riversdale constituency are debating a no confidence motion in her next Tuesday.
This is on the evening of Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar.
The motion slams the MP for daring to speak out against the Labour leader on anti-Jew hate.

l suspect if he gets elected leader he is most likely to take Labour away from the extremist politics of Corbyn and back to the centre ground.

Less than 1 in 10 Labour members are in Momentum. The majority of the public are in the centre, the sooner both the main parties realise that the better.

I think the Conservatives appealed to the middle-ground rump of previous Labour voters. The Conservative “main party” realised the need for offering that appeal.
PM’s Questions on Wednesday should be amusing.
