Good. Common sense prevails at last - adding that clause for 'free speech' would have undone the entire thing and made it all worse, because the definition already allows for that.

Labour's last few months of needlessly kicking themselves in the balls might finally begin to end now. They now need to acknowledge anti-semitism exists in the grassroots and beyond and begin to root it out.

I've been involved in the Labour Party for nearly two decades, and I have never felt as let down as this.

It's exactly 5 years ago to the week that my late grandmother passed away. She was the one who took me to my first CLP branch meeting, a ardent anti-Zionist Jew who would be turning in her grave at this news.

The NEC members who rejected the leaderships amendment that would have provided party members the safe ground to describe the circumstances surrounding the foundation of the state of Israel, and its policies should be utterly appalled with themselves.

Thought you were born in the 90's. Could have been someone else mind.

And why are you let down?

I went to my first branch meeting at around 7 years old, and am in my mid twenties.

Fair play mate.

I was out playing probably. Still am come to think of it.

But why are you let down?

It's a complete abdication of our responsibility to point out systemic oppression, regardless of what form it comes in.

Booooooooooooooo!

They should have defied the Zionist apartheid state supporters and told them to 'kin swing it.

This wont keep them at bay. You dont appease an aggressive bunch of fascists, you take them on and destroy them.

Wrong move for Labour.

 

[Number_25]

More fool me, I guess. I honestly thought that, this time, it'd be different.

Quite right mate. It's effectively a Zionist charter to crack heads in Israel and give them a free hand to continue to treat Palestinians like dogs.

This is down to the neo-liberal Blairites. Everyone knows their leader is in the back pocket of Tel Aviv.

My only solace in this is that overnight the left has been strengthened and now must go after these neo-liberals and deselect their MPs and cleanse the LP of their entryism.

On contrary think it's brought Israel government actions into forefront of many more people's minds here in theUK.

"The weak crumble, are slaughtered and are erased from history while the strong, for good or for ill, survive. The strong are respected, and alliances are made with the strong, and in the end peace is made with the strong" Benjamin Netanyahu

Labour should always stand up to such people, it was good day when Netanyahu waded into Corbyn and later come out with the above.

 

[Moomin]

I hope Jezza comes out and explains the reasoning and also attacks Netanyahu.

...and so it begins.

That ^^^ is what will happen now: no rest for those involved in Operation Get Rid of Corbyn in the LP right wing and for their their Zionist henchmen.

Akin to the so called "Trotskyst" clear out under Kinnock, no doubt.

Sick of it.

Sick of all of it.
