Even the Green candidate has dropped out due to old social media comments about the Middle East, this whole thing is a farce.

Labour should have gone with a safe candidate who could connect with the local constituents without relying on anti-Semitic tropes and conspiracy theories. Like Suzy Izzard.
What anti semitic tropes did he rely on?
Bloody Jews, always ignoring intelligence from Egypt to push their own agendas

Haven't seen the quotes but DM apparently had audio of him also referring to "Jews in the media" which, if true, is a bit tropey.

Yeah fair. Just seen the stuff about Israel ignoring warnings and can’t get my head around how that’s antisemitism, but I guess it doesn’t matter anymore

The best thing about this is that it's laid bare what everyone already knew about how inconsistent this iteration of Labour are regarding the issue and that what is and isn't acceptable is often purely down to whether they like the person or not. Almost a year on, Diane Abbott hasn't had the whip restored or disciplinary proceedings against her concluded, despite her immediate apology, whereas at first with Ali they were more than happy to immediately say "he's apologised, we move on".

Who could possibly have foreseen that all the worst faith actors Starmer willingly embraced would turn on him as soon as an election loomed? Shocked.

It's almost as if Starmer and the rest of the grown up's have issues with MP's on the left of the party. Who'd have thought that eh? Was quite funny watching swivel eyed loon Lord Austin getting his arse handed to him by John McDonnell on Sky last night though.
Plenty more of this come over the course of this year from all sides - the entire election campaign will be a complete cock-fest.

As of last night, Galloway is bookies favourite @ 8/15
Do you think he’d be a good MP for Rochdale?

I think the average person has compassion for people and I do not agree with your sentiments here. Most people in the UK are caring and charitable, to suggest otherwise would mean we are in permanent anarchy?

ComeOnYouOs:- I take great exception to your comments. You are obviously an ignorant twit. How the Hell do you know or think you know, what my personal opinions are? The conflict is extremely complicated and really far too complicated for discussion on this trite message board. Perhaps you will engage your brain before making utterances. Think! How the Hell do you know what my opinions are, you don't even know who I am.

I'm sorry you've taken great exception to my reply to your post.......err, no I'm not actually.
You seem ok to have a pop at others, but you don't like it yourself.
As I said, you say more about yourself than you realize

No because I only gave my observations on what other people have told me. These are not my thoughts. That's why I take exception.
