Reply to: Labour Anti-Semitic Under Corbyn

Very nice - Sir Kier now needs tax cuts for middle classes and No10 is his

The whip was withdrawn by brave Sir Keir, nothing more.

The former leader of the party not being allowed to represent the party only a few months later is quite a big deal.

I wonder if he'll stand as independent - and if he'd win against whoever Labour parachute in to Islington in 3 years?

You must be talking to those in his cult.

He's been constituency MP since 1983, with consistently strong results despite being rebellious on the back benches for most of his tenure. The facts suggest you just have a personal gripe with the man.

But he is forbidden from being a Labour MP.

There are many older MPs. I have only heard good things about him as an MP - seems a role he's much better suited to than leader.

He's old and should retire anyway so hardly a hardship.


(He - unlike all the other leaders of parties - is apparently a tulip constituency MP. )

one of the 600 spaces cleared up!

He said sorry and now is allowed back in

Because he refused to hold his views in check? Nah, far more likely he'd rather be suspended than act falsely (as he sees it). If he maintains the issue has been used to stir up dissent and blown up by the media - which seems an arguable position - he shouldn't have to censor those views.

For some reason he thought and thinks the media are against him, there as if he had got a good advisor he could have done a Blair.

[AtW]

No, that's just silly.

Dogs are social, friendly and more intelligent than any UKIP member. I don't believe a dog would volunteer to be a member of UKIP.

Apart from Churchill (AKA SupremeSpod)!

[d000hg]

He needed to simply keep his mouth shut but it is clearly beyond him so I suspect he is an anti-Semite.

So why do some of them attack and kill children? Also they particularly hate foxes, which I grant you is a sound judgement!

I think it's because children don't pay taxes and might turn out to have less right wing points of view, based on having an open mind and judging people by their words and actions, not their skin colour, religion or the country they were born in.

[SueEllen]

Ah, it's one of those. A nice witch-hunt, any reasonable comment you might make is viewed as "YOU ARE A HUGE ANTI-SEMITE". I'm no JC fan but it's hardly controversial to suggest the media blew this up and people used it as political ammo, while still accepting there was/is a very real problem.

Watched Newsnight last night and apparently there was an agreement between him and 4 other leftie MPs in Labour to keep their mouths shut over the report for the next few weeks. A couple of then were them surprised that Corbyn opened his big mouth.
