There is no doubt in my mind that it was set up. Mann wanted to provoke Livingstone into lamping him one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this 'spun-up nonsense' is the culmination of this. Livingston was just too high profile to keep it a secret any longer. http://jewishbusinessnews.com/2016/05/03/50-uk-labour-mps-secretly-suspended-over-last-2-months/ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3570731/Jeremy-Corbyn-face-stalking-horse-challenge-Labour-suspends-50-activists-racism-run-key-elections.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brant grebner Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 What Ken Livingstone said was bang out of order and he knows it. If you went in to your work and started going on about how Hitler had the right idea then you would deservedly get sacked. It's fine to think this, but you've got to be really careful when you are speaking publicly and keep the loose talk about "crushing the pirate state" to a minimum. I advise no more than 4 coded references in any speech, and perhaps 2 blatant ones at a push. As for the Muslim lady, she wants to blow up Israel and kill all the Jews. Which again is fine - we live in a tolerant modern society where Young British Muslim women are now free to enter our politics and not get sold as child bride to their cousins in Pakistan. She is entitled to express her opinions and she is a moderate Muslim practicing her religion of peace so she only advocates blowing up Israel and all the Jews. And yes, the stuff she had tweeted and posted on the Internet was "anti-Semitic" and it should have been vetted by Labour before she was elected, but Labour are all about inclusivity and quota filling and they needed a young lady Asian Muslim as an MP and she was the only one available so they had no choice but to pass her and then fund her campaign and elect her to public office. And anyway she's apologised for writing these things on the Internet so she obviously doesn't think that way anymore so it's fine. Corbyn is right to take such a principled stance against Ken Livingstone though. They do look alike and Corbyn is obviously concerned that people might think it was him what said Hitler was fine until he had his spazzy brainwave. He has shown himself as a real lewader of strength on this issue and is the beacon of hope and free-thinking that we have lacked since Simon Le Bon died.

phart Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 Been looking at some of the claims made. I'd like to see some of them tested in a court setting rather than the newspaper printing what they want. Like Israeli involvement with ISIS.

I see folk are saying it's anti-semitic to mention the support Israel gives ISIS. It's UN watchers that are noticing the contact between the two. Huge war for information going on.

We had a spot of Labour skullduggery in leafy East Ren the other day. The father of Jim Murphy's protege and squeaky clean parliamentary candidate, Paul O'Kane, was was seen and photographed striding around Neilston pulling down every SNP poster and sign he could find.

thplinth Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 What the feck is Corbyn doing. 50 mp's suspended? Is that right? If so he is an utter headbanger with a death wish for his own party. What an incredible phud this guy is proving himself to be. The people who backed him must be shaking their heads at this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thplinth Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 (Deep apathy is what I feel. I cannot describe how deep it runs (because I don't care enough to notice).Thank you No voting Scotland ) 50 Members is nothing. The way it was spun post Livingstone in another calculated move was to make it sound like it was actually far more significant. How many folk joined Labour recently. 50 folk in that scale is fukk all of nothing. I cant believe I am defending Labour / Corbyn (who annoys me) but they are being stitched up here.

Stitched up or not the labour party and its friendly press would do the exact same to the tories if they were in the political frying pan. Politics is a very dirty profession.
