'It's heartbreaking': Ex-Labour minister urges voters to support Tories

A crying shame that the party set up to represent the interests of the indigenous working class have scabbed all over that ideal and have been reduced to the party of choice for virtue signalling c*nts and those seeking entitlement.

In the olden days they used to hang, draw amd quarter traitors

He must hope Corbyn does not get into power and reintroduce that..

I am true blue labour, I support Corbyn and will vote for him

The Middle East is a very complicated situation, people have a right to their different views

Whether on the side of Israel or Palestine....it is what democracy is about.

In the olden days they used to hang, draw amd quarter traitors

Yes but that was for betraying your king or country.

Not for betraying a set of pound shop anti-Semitists.

How odd that whiperingdeath has never seen the squalid 3rd world enclaves in many Labour run urban parts of this country. Not so great, nor safe, for those forced to live there because they can't afford to flee.

why have their been so many anti semitic  attacks in the last few years
what else has increased over those years that has made it so
more fluoride ?

or has it just floated down from the sky?   

I think we know the answer to that.

I should think the way labour have dealt with this as only encouraged the haters.

Will Jewish people be any safer in this country if there is a Conservative Government?

Is it only Labour Party members that are anti semitic?

Do you think the Conservative Party members will stand and fight on the streets to protect the Jewish Community from a march by Facists? How many anti facists do they have in the Conservative Party. Is Dorris one of them. He said he would throw himself in front of the bulldozers but didn't. Would he be prepared to defend Jewish residents from Facist's with his fist's...I think not!

Jewish people in this country should know they can look to the Labour Party to defend them from Facist's and anti semites.

"An overwhelming 78 per cent of British Jews would prefer a no deal Brexit over the prospect of Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister, a new poll has confirmed.

Asked to decide between both scenarios as their least objectionable outcome for the UK in the coming months, just 12 per cent of respondents to the survey, conducted by the polling firm Survation for the JC, said they would rather see the Labour leader in Downing Street than exiting the European Union without a deal.

When asked separately whether they would consider voting Labour at the next general election with or without Mr Corbyn as Labour leader, just 7 per cent said they would consider supporting the party.

But in a sign that Labour could win back substantial numbers of Jewish voters if Mr Corbyn were no longer in charge, 42 per cent said they could vote for the party with a new leader.

Wes Streeting, Labour MP for Ilford North, told the JC: “I’m afraid this poll reflects what I hear on the doorstep in my own community, but seeing it so starkly presented is devastating – not least for significant numbers of Jews who clearly want to vote Labour but can’t because of Jeremy Corbyn.

“Given our very public failure to tackle antisemitism within our ranks, who can blame them?”

The clear opposition to Mr Corbyn becoming PM, even when faced with the scenario of a No Deal Brexit, is even more devastating for Labour when taking into account the previously pro-Remain sympathies of British Jews in past opinion polls.

A Survation poll carried out for the JC in May 2016, ahead of the referendum that year, revealed that 49 per cent of Jews wished to remain in the EU. Only just over a third – 34 per cent – backed Brexit, with 17 per cent stating they were undecided.

Dudley North MP Ian Austin, who quit Labour earlier this year in protest at the party’s antisemitism crisis, said: “This poll shows the shameful extent to which the Jewish community – which traditionally showed strong support for Labour – has been alienated by the racism which has poisoned the party under Jeremy Corbyn's leadership.

“Six times as many Jewish people would vote Labour with a different leader – so even if moderate MPs won't get rid of him because it is the right thing to do, you'd have thought they would at least do it for electoral reasons.”

Ahead of the 2017 general election, a Survation poll for the JC showed just 13 per cent of British Jews planned to vote Labour under Mr Corbyn.

The latest figure of seven per cent shows his popularity has dipped even further."

In December, 1931, Harold Harmsworth, 1st Lord Rothermere, the press baron, whose newspapers had been especially hostile to the New Party during the election, had a meeting with Mosley. According to his son, Nicholas Mosley, Rothermere told him that he was prepared to put the Harmsworth press at his disposal if he succeeded in organising a disciplined Fascist movement from the remnants of the New Party. The details of this meeting was recorded in his diary by Mosley's close friend, Harold Nicolson

It was very important to Rothermere that this new party would target working-class voters in order that it would help the fortunes of the Conservative Party.

Plus ca change!

Labour should kick all and any anti semites out of the Party but this is a political hatchet job by people who have no interest in the Jewish community. Labour will do more to protect Jewish people and communities in this country including standing on the street and fighting the Fascist's. Make no mistake!

7% !!

The reason Momemntum hate's Jews is because of the association of Jews with being wealthy hard working capitalists, friendly with the USA and Momemntum hate people with money and hate the USA. It is hatred and it's now endemic within the party.  It's sad but true, but they'd sooner side with terrorist organisations like ISIS, than Israel

I don't know what Jeremy Corbyn's relationship was like with his mother, but he did come from a wealthy family and was sent to private school.  I'd say for sure their beliefs and ideology was quite different.  These are private schools that Labour under Corbyn want to ban, and let the public purse foot the bill for their education instead, just to satisfy their hatred of people who can afford and choose to do it.

Do you really think the Labour Party is full of anti semites Clydebank? I mean really. Go to a local Labour Club wearing the furry hat and see if you get any abuse! You might get the odd funny look but I very much doubt any bad words or treatment.

I can't really understand why you'd think otherwise.  Not traditional Labour members of 10 years ago, but Corbyn and McDonnell definitely at least mildly anti semitic, but of the new members in the last 5-10 years, I'd think 1 in 5 of them are very anti semitic

It's the same thing moisok. The pro Palestine excuse is used as a cover.

We know who the bulk of these types are in the Labour party, and there's no changing them.
Or getting rid of them.
And they're working their way in deeper all the time.

The present Labour Party is just a smidgeon of old; modern Labour is antisemic, and possibly proud too to reflect or announce their dominance in The Party. Hopefully, a good spanking in the impending General Election will bring them down 3 or 4 pegs. The views of the new members are mostly imported, and not British otherwise I'll be a voter.

Injera,

Malaysia is the only country on that list that I would consider visiting, infact I shall be visiting next year. I thought they were a religiously tolerant country with millions of Christians. The rest I have absolutely no desire to go to with the possible exception of Oman as a stopover for a far East flight. I heard it is beautiful in places.

The sooner the Iranians overthrow their Religious Tyrants the sooner they can show the world what a wonderful hospitable people they are and how much they can contribute to civilisation

I got no truck with any religion and yes I think Islam is as bad if not worse than any of them. I would not wish to visit any Islamic State. I like my freedom and I like a drink!

And he signed it

Labour are the party of the public sector and the minorities , the only time they have any interest in the indigenous white working class is an election.
Places oop North have now realised we have had a Labour mp/ council here for 60 years and things are getting worse.
The scales are falling from the working classes eyes and Labour are finished.

The Tory party have appointed Austin  as an envoy for Israel, I didn't hear that mentioned in any of the interviews.


The establishment, capitalists etc forever make the point ,that anyone seeking to discredit them and seek a Socialist ethos, is antisimetic

" .......The advantage of this line of attack for a capitalist class keen to maintain its privileges hardly needs pointing out. Any effort to articulate a programme for radical change, for socialism, becomes inherently vulnerable to the charge of anti-semitism.

Daniel Finn, editor of the New Left Review, recently set out what the stake is. The primary goal of the Blairites and the Israeli lobby in Labour—and his opponents in the British establishment—“is to destroy Corbyn altogether.”

And if that fails, a secondary aim is to get him to capitulate on Palestinian rights. “If we can’t hold the line in defence of Corbyn’s eminently moderate stance on Palestine, we certainly won’t be in any condition to resist the pressure that is still to come.”

In short, his critics inside and outside the Labour Party need Corbyn crushed or tamed. And the inexhaustible anti-semitism crisis offers a route to one or the other solution.
