Current Affairs Labour and Anti Semitism.......

I see you’ve read far too deeply into that simile. Interesting.

What?

 

[zzr45]

What?

Oh no, you’re a smart fella. You’ll work it out.

Brexit and Corbyn in 2020. We’ll make early 90s Saravejo look like a month in the Bahamas.

Tories back to believing polls again, really! Don't you lot ever learn?

I not a tory, I am a disillusioned voter full stop.

I just fear that all the anti semitism crap will mean we are stuck with the tories further down the line. Then again we have no clue who will be their leader and they may appoint someone who is worse than the abysmal May.

The king maker has been Rupert Murdoch since the days of Thatcher

Sadly this is true, though I do think his power over the people is waning. Many are seeing through his bull.

Lets face it if he had had his way it would have been a landslide Tory win last time and Corbyn proved that wrong.

You just likened the likely democratic election of a social democrat to a genocide.

I see Victoria Derbyshire is an anti-semite now.

No. I didn’t say the Bosnian War. Why do you think I’d liken the election of a socialist to genocide?

So by "early 90s Sarajevo" you meant that a Corbyn Government in 2020 would be like FK Sarajevo finishing 11th in the last (1990-1991) proper season of the Yugoslav First League, a bitterly average season with the only highlight beating Red Star Belgrade just after they'd won the European Cup?

What an odd comparison to make.

And Brexit. Let’s not forget Brexit.

Why not just be truthful and admit that it was a comment made in poor taste?

I went online to see what she had done. Saw a video on the BBC with 2 guests who said they are leaving this country due to anti-semitism.

Rich coming from you of all people.

I stand by everything I've said in this thread.

The usual people on twitter have been claiming that the fact she said "party" rather than "group" (which is how the Jewish News initially described it) means everything else she said was utterly wrong.
