Truly abhorrent:

Separately in April 2018 he also shared a quote from a Jewish historian that said "the real issue... is that right-wing Jews in the Labour party and outside the party object to the fact that Jeremy Corbyn is a consistent supporter of Palestinian rights".

Standing up for what’s right was his downfall.

And then we all moan about how morally bankrupt all the MPs are.

No, he's been sacked for Anti Semitism, sharing a tweet from a Jewish historian which stood up for Corbyn.

I truly feel for the long standing Labour members and supporters having to see this happen to their party.

Looks like Labour's investment in employing the ex Israeli spy to trawl social media for dissenters is paying off.

Seems to me, Labour's nothing at all like the party it was founded as 120+ years ago. A party to represent the poor, disadvantaged, trade unions etc .
It represents the bankers, corporations, the privileged etc now.
Starmers a lucky guy, because the Tories have collapsed, and he's the beneficiary, not because his sparkling personality has engaged people

You left out billionaires and private healthcare profiteers.

On that note, good to see the Labour candidate for Islington is running scared https://www.islingtongazette.co.uk/news ... MTZieXRlcw

Any comments about Galloway's prediction that if Starmer becomes our next Prime Minster this country will be dragged into a direct war with Russia within the next six months . ?

Well, at worst his prediction has a 50:50 chance of being correct and with the current situation in Europe the odds of him being right are much higher. He’s hardly Nostradamus.

Whether or not UK forces end up in a direct conflit with Russian forces, whoever occupies No.10 will make little difference.

After all of Starmer's hot air about the House of Lords being bloated, based too much on party political affiliations and his intention to reduce it, here is another promise from him that no longer applies:

Under Starmer, it seems so many Conservative laws are being continued, by Labour according to the information I'm reading, it's as if Labour are continuaty Conservative.
When so many millionaires, and business leaders say they are voting Labour now, there's something wrong with Labour in my view

Remember guys, this is just a ruse to get in power. Once he's got the keys to No. 10, we'll see the true Sirkieth.

As said before, dislike Creasy and a lot of her personal policy positions (and not like she needs an excuse to make things about her...) but obviously behaviour like this is abhorrent and hope the bloke gets done for it.
