wykikitoon 19885 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Quote Luciana Berger is being asked about the anti-seminitsm issue. She says they saw the unprecedented sight of a minority community taking to parliament square to protest against racism in her majesty’s opposition. She talks about the battle to get the party to adopt the IHRA definition of anti-semitism. Angela Smith says it is incumbent on everyone to acknowledge the problem with anti-semitism in the Labour party. She says it is one of the major reasons for their departure.

Gemmill 44374 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I don't see that they had much choice tbh. Particularly Berger. The Labour Party is a fucking shitshow under Corbyn and just sitting on your hands can't be the answer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44374 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 The dickhead Labour MPs tweeting self righteously should take a look at exactly how effective they're being in their "opposition" to the current government. They weren't getting into power anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4371 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I don't see how Corbyn being leader has suddenly meant a shit load of anti-semites joining Labour. As I've said before being pro-Palestinian can go too far but I'll bet there have been those elements for years. Social media doesn't help of course.

It's like the rise in racism we've seen since Brexit. They feel like Corbyn's leadership has validated their prejudices and that has emboldened them. Meanwhile Labour has dragged their feet at every opportunity to address those problems. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5176 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Most importantly it just shouldn't be an issue in Labour. It should have just been shut the fuck down since it was the only thing the Tories really had on Labour that would stick. I don't personally believe many in the public genuinely care about it, but the MPs and politicians really seem to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
