As Labour prepares to discipline @margarethodge, here's a post I wrote in April on the culture of complacency, victim-blaming and self-congratulation that has marked the party's response to #Antisemitism. gladstonediaries.blogspot.com/2018/04/labour… 
Too often, Labour has tried to silence those who complain rather than challenge the existence of abuse.
Too many on the Left see prejudice as a right-wing problem, of which the Left is incapable. The result is a culture of complacency that allows abuse to flourish.
In disciplining @margarethodge, the leadership has chosen to target the victim rather than the problem. A sad day for the Left, for progressive politics and for a politics of equality and respect. gladstonediaries.blogspot.com/2018/04/labour…
