1. Think back to this time three years ago. Three years. That's all. Three short years. Now imagine people leaving @UKLabour because they believe it has become an institutionally racist party. You can't, can you? That's the scale of what's happened inside such a short time frame.
2. Now imagine how you can reverse that process. Right now when with the possibility of an election, when the leadership needs to avoid splits & rows, right now is when it CHOOSES to formally discriminate against Jews, to make anti-semitism conditional and get away with it. Why?
3 Because it knows it's so strong it can get away with it. It knows anti-semitism isn't a big vote loser. It knows party loyalty runs so deep many will if not grin at least bear it. They will think a trade-off with rail nationalisation is worth it. Or that things can change back
